Thybulle (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's preseason game against the Jazz.

EDGE Analysis

Thybulle won't see any action during the preseason due to a lingering right knee injury. He'll have just under a week to get ready for the 2025-26 regular-season opener Wednesday against the Timberwolves.

Thybulle (knee) will remain on the sidelines for Tuesday's exhibition game against the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

Thybulle has yet to appear for the Trail Blazers this preseason, but maybe he will get out there for Portland's preseason finale in Utah on Thursday. Kris Murray and Toumani Camara should continue to get some extended run with Thybulle watching from the sidelines.

Thybulle (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's exhibition against the Kings, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports.

EDGE Analysis

This will be Thybulle's second straight game on the sidelines due to the knee issue, and his next chance to play will come Tuesday versus the Warriors. Toumani Camara and Kris Murray will pick up the slack in his absence.

Thybulle has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against Golden State due to right knee soreness.

EDGE Analysis

Thybulle will miss the Trail Blazers' preseason opener Wednesday with a right knee injury. The 6-foot-5 wing missed all but 15 regular-season games last season due to ankle and knee injuries. He had a procedure to address inflammation in his right knee in October 2024, then suffered a sprained ankle while ramping up his recovery. His next chance to play will come Friday against Sacramento. Kris Murray, Rayan Rupert and Sidy Cissoko could see more minutes Wednesday.

Thybulle opted into his $11.5 million player option for the 2025-26 season Tuesday, according to NBA reporter Chris Haynes.

EDGE Analysis

This was always the most likely scenario for Thybulle as he looks to rebuild his market value -- knee and ankle injuries limited him to 15 regular-season games in 2024-25. He fared well in those games, however, posting averages of 7.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.6 blocks and 2.2 steals in 20.8 minutes per contest while shooting 43.8 percent from beyond the arc.

Thybulle closed Sunday's 109-81 win over the Lakers with 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-7 FT), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 29 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran swingman missed the bulk of the season due to offseason knee surgery and an ankle sprain while ramping up in October, but he played a meaningful role for the Trail Blazers during April. Over seven games this month, Thybulle averaged 9.1 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.4 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 27.3 minutes. It remains to be seen if Thybulle will exercise his player option for 2025-26, but he's proven to be an excellent source of swipes and triples in fantasy leagues when he's able to play substantial minutes.

Thybulle will start in Friday's game against the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

The defensive-minded swingman is slated to make his first start of the season Friday due to Toumani Camara (ankle) being sidelined. Thybulle has appeared in 10 straight outings after missing the first 67 games of the season due to an ankle injury. He's averaging 6.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, 2.4 steals and 1.6 assists across 17.4 minutes per contest.

Thybulle ended with eight points (4-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and five steals across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 victory over the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

High steal totals are nothing new for Thybulle -- throughout his career, he's had 12 games in which he's recorded at least five steals. He's fared well since returning from his injury, posting averages of 6.2 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 1.1 three-pointers and 2.3 steals in 16.7 minutes across nine outings.

Thybulle notched 15 points (5-6 FG, 5-6 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 15 minutes during Tuesday's 122-111 loss to Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Despite seeing just 15 minutes, Thybulle caught fire from beyond the arc and made the most of his limited run, matching his career-high mark (5) in the process. In six appearances with Portland, Thybulle has looked solid with 7.0 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.5 blocks, 2.0 steals and 1.5 three-pointers in 15.1 minutes.

Thybulle had nine points (4-9 FG, 1-5 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, one block and five steals in 22 minutes during Monday's 112-97 win over the Wizards.

EDGE Analysis

Making just his second appearance of the season, Thybulle made plenty of waves on the defensive end with his 11th career game with at least five steals. Toumani Camara (calf), Jerami Grant (knee) and Jabari Walker (concussion) were all sidelined Monday, making Thybulle a potential streamer in the short term until the Trail Blazers get some reinforcements.
