Deni Avdija has been officially ruled out of Friday’s game against the Raptors due to a back injury. Having exited early in the previous game, his absence was anticipated after being listed as doubtful. In his place, Sidy Cissoko will step into the starting lineup, though his fantasy value remains limited.

Injury concerns continue for the fantasy community as Deni Avdija is doubtful to play against the Raptors due to a back issue. Despite earlier optimism from head coach Tiago Splitter, Avdija is likely sidelined for precautionary reasons after Thursday’s early exit. Sidy Cissoko is expected to fill in the starting lineup; however, fantasy managers may not find much value in adding Cissoko at this time.

Trail Blazers coach Tiago Splitter announced that Deni Avdija is expected to play against the Raptors on Friday despite recent back discomfort. Avdija, who left Thursday’s game early and previously missed three games due to a back injury, is anticipated to make a strong return and maintain his recent form.

Deni Avdija is listed as questionable for Sunday’s matchup against the Kings due to back issues. His absence from the last three games has given Sidy Cissoko an opportunity in the starting lineup. Should Avdija return, Cissoko might still maintain his starting position, particularly with Jrue Holiday’s calf injury casting doubt over his availability.

Deni Avdija will sit out a third straight game due to a lingering back issue, missing the upcoming matchup against the Lakers. With Avdija sidelined, Sidy Cissoko initially stepped into the starting lineup, but his minutes have reduced as Jerami Grant has resumed play. Fantasy managers may not find much value in picking up Cissoko under the current rotation dynamics.

Deni Avdija is set to miss Tuesday’s matchup against the Warriors due to lower back soreness. The Trail Blazers’ forward injured himself in the closing moments of Sunday’s loss to the Knicks, impacting Portland’s rotation. With Avdija sidelined, Jrue Holiday’s role is expected to increase as the team adjusts to his absence.

Deni Avdija continued his strong scoring streak with 20 points against the Rockets, despite shooting 5-of-15 from the field. He compensated with perfect accuracy from the free-throw line and contributed six assists and two steals. Averaging over 20 points in nine of his last 10 games, Avdija is offering substantial fantasy value and poses a triple-double threat in the upcoming matchup against the Knicks.

Deni Avdija delivered an impressive performance on Wednesday, scoring 41 points and contributing six rebounds, two assists, a steal, and two three-pointers against the Rockets. This marks his first 40-point game of the season and continues his strong start in 2026, with three 30-plus point games in four matchups. Avdija has been a consistent triple-double threat and looks to maintain his momentum in the upcoming rematch against the Rockets on Friday.

Deni Avdija delivered a standout performance in the Trail Blazers’ victory over the Mavericks, posting 27 points, nine rebounds, and 11 assists, narrowly missing his third triple-double of the season.

Despite the high turnovers, his overall contribution has been pivotal in his breakout season.

Deni Avdija delivered a standout performance against the Clippers, accumulating 29 points, nine rebounds, and nine assists. His inside-out scoring and ability to find the charity stripe nearly secured him a triple-double. With Avdija stepping up as Portland’s primary offensive threat, he continues to grow into a pivotal fantasy asset in his sixth NBA season.

Deni Avdija continued to showcase his playmaking skills despite the Portland Trail Blazers’ 110-106 loss to the Orlando Magic, contributing 25 points, eight assists, and six rebounds. However, his recent shooting struggles persist, with Avdija shooting 40% or worse in five of his last six games. Despite the dip in shooting efficiency, Avdija remains in elite company, standing alongside Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Luka Doncic as the only players averaging at least 25 points, seven rebounds, and six assists per game this season.

Deni Avdija delivered a standout performance in Portland’s 134-133 victory over the Kings, posting 35 points, five rebounds, and five assists. His clutch free throws with 1.5 seconds left sealed the win. Despite some turnover challenges, Avdija’s consistent high-level production bodes well for his All-Star aspirations as he leads the team during Jrue Holiday’s absence.
