Wright (hand) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Lakers in Los Angeles. Wright sustained a fractured fourth metacarpal in his left hand near the end of Wednesday's loss to the Clippers. In the aftermath of the contest, he relayed that he would play through the injury, if the team's medical staff allowed it. With the ruling that he won't play Friday, the Blazers have yet to release a potential return date. As a result, consider him questionable for Saturday's contest against the Pelicans.

Wright (hand) will travel with the Blazers to Los Angeles, but his status for Friday's game is yet to be determined, Jabari Young of Comcast SportsNet reports. Wright broke a bone in his left hand during Wednesday's game against the Clippers, but it appears he may attempt to play through the fracture. It's on his non-shooting hand, so the impact on his scoring and shooting ability may be minimal, but he obviously faces the possibility of irritation or re-injury.

Wright broke a bone in his hand during Thursday's game against the Clippers. Wright has played a regular role for the Trail Blazers for a few weeks after seeing sporadic action for much of the season, but this injury puts his availability moving forward in question. The Trail Blazers say Wright's status has yet to be determined, but expect them to provide an update in the near future.

Wright posted 15 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 27 minutes of action Wednesday against the Jazz. Wright returned to the bench with LaMarcus Aldridge back in the lineup but still managed to see extra minutes with Nicolas Batum out. Still, Batum isn't expected to be out for too long, which means Wright won't hold much value moving forward.

Wright started in place of LaMarcus Aldridge (finger) on Tuesday, recording 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, and two assists in 21 minutes during the loss to the Warriors. Wright's candidacy for the nod was likely bolstered by the opponent, and he proceeded to pour in seven points in the first quarter and 12 by halftime to help pace the Blazers to a five-point lead. While he failed to commit a turnover or pick up a foul, he also didn't log a second of playing time after Golden State went on a 16-5 run in the initial 5:38 of the second half. A decision has yet to be made on the statuses of Aldridge or Nicolas Batum (back), but Wright will likely remain in the starting five, if one (or both) are unable to suit up.

Wright will start in Tuesday's game against the Warriors, digital reporter Casey Holdahl reports. Portland is dealing with multiple injuries to their normal starting five so Wright is in line to see an abnormal amount of minutes Tuesday. This isn't expected to be a long-term fixture, however, so Wright has more value in daily formats than anything else.

Wright played 25 minutes Saturday, scoring 10 points (4-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt) with six rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block. The 25 minutes were Wright's highest since December 19th and was forced into action with both Nicolas Batum (back) and LaMarcus Aldridge (hand) missing for the second half. If Batum and Aldridge have to miss time, Wright will be pressed into action, but he's not a must-add, with his major contribution being in the three-pointers category.

Wright scored eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt) to go with one assist in 13 minutes off the bench Thursday against the Mavericks. Since the Trail Blazers acquired Arron Afflalo after the All-Star break, Wright has seen his workload shrink to just eight minutes per game. However, with Wesley Matthews (Achilles) out for the season, Wright might see the court more often, though he is still not relevant in most fantasy leagues at this time.

Wright saw the floor for just 10 minutes Thursday as Thomas Robinson got the start at power forward. He only managed one point and one rebound, but added two steals in the loss to the Celtics. Wright's benching came as a surprise seeing as how he filled in admirably Wednesday with 15 points and five assists. He and Thomas Robinson will likely be battling for the starting power forward spot in LaMarcus Aldrige's absence.

Wright will come off the bench Thursday against the Celtics, The Oregonian reports. Wright was moved to the bench with the news that Thomas Robinson was a late addition to the starting lineup. There was no indication of the switch prior to the game, but it could impact his minutes for Thursday's game. He remains one of the options to receive added minutes, however, as LaMarcus Aldridge (thumb) will miss six-to-eight weeks.
