Contributes 17 points from bench

Sharpe's total highlighted the negative correlation between his numbers and those of Deni Avdija. The two players rarely coexist with standout numbers at the same time, and it was Sharpe's turn to take the lead Tuesday evening. Avdija has fared better than his counterpart in recent weeks, however.

Posts 20 points in win

Grant stepped up as the leader after a slow start from Deni Avdija, who has frequently paced the team in recent weeks. There's no telling how long Portland's win streak will last, but the team is doing a great job of lessening their odds in the Cooper Flagg lottery. The Trail Blazers have the luxury of a healthy lineup with guys like Grant who can pick up the slack when others falter. It will be interesting to see if they can keep things going agains the new-look Kings Thursday night.

Unlikely to play Tuesday

Clingan hasn't picked up an injury but is expected to cede his minutes to Williams, who was sidelined for Portland's previous four contests. Williams has only played in 17 of the Trail Blazers' 50 contests this season, so Clingan should operate as the team's backup center to DeAndre Ayton when Williams is forced to sit out.

Thybulle is still recovering from a Grade 2 right ankle sprain that he sustained in late November, and there's no clear timetable for his return. The 27-year-old's next chance to play will come Thursday against the Kings.
