Holiday was cold from the field in Game 1, regardless of whether he was shooting inside the arc or beyond it. The two-time champion was one of three Blazers starters to shoot under 30.0 percent on the evening, contributing to Portland’s overall offensive struggles. He did compensate for the scoring struggles by dishing out double-digit assists, doing so while committing only one turnover. Still, the Trail Blazers will likely need more production from Holiday as a scorer going forward.

After a quiet, three-point first half, Henderson found his rhythm in his playoff debut and scored 15 points after halftime to finish as Portland’s second-leading scorer on the evening. Henderson shot efficiently in his 27 minutes both inside and outside the arc, and was one of the Blazers’ more reliable starters overall. The former third-overall pick has logged some impressive scoring performances recently in his return from injury. He’ll have a chance to build off some Game 1 momentum and carry it over on Tuesday when the Blazers and Spurs take the floor again.

Avdija got off to a fast start in Sunday’s outing. He logged 11 first-quarter points and tallied eight more to total 19 points at halftime. Yet, he was much less dominant the remainder of the game, taking just two shots in the third frame before logging six points in the fourth. Still, Avdija was the only Trail Blazer with more than 20 points on the evening. He’ll likely need some of his teammates to contribute more on the offensive end if Portland wants to avoid dropping Game 2.

Grant took the floor for the first time since late March and provided some huge moments on both ends of the floor during the fourth quarter. The veteran forward hit two massive three-pointers with under three minutes remaining, made a big defensive stop on Jordan Goodwin’s game-tying putback attempt with seconds left, and then provided a punctuation-mark dunk on the other end to punch Portland’s ticket to the playoffs. Grant was one of two Trail Blazers to make four three-pointers on the evening. He’ll likely play an important role in the first-round series against the Spurs.

Holiday logged 38 minutes in the win and provided much-needed scoring for the Blazers. The two-time NBA champion drained four three-pointers, including a big one down the stretch of the fourth quarter, to help keep Portland within striking distance. He didn’t compile many other counting stats, yet his veteran presence in clutch time helped Portland come from behind and secure a playoff spot. The Trail Blazers will face San Antonio in the opening round.

Avdija was everything the Blazers needed down the stretch to mount a come-from-behind win. The first-time All-Star repeatedly got to the rim throughout the fourth quarter and ultimately scored the go-ahead layup with 16.1 seconds remaining. He finished with game-highs in points and assists while leading the Blazers from 11 points down midway through the final frame to mount a comeback that would secure them the seventh seed in the playoffs. Portland will face San Antonio in the opening round.

The Trail Blazers will reintegrate the veteran forward on Tuesday as they look to punch their ticket to the playoffs. Grant played in 57 of the 82 regular-season games for Portland, with a calf injury costing him the last seven games. He’s averaging 18.6 points per game thus far and will likely play a big role for the team in his return.

Grant hasn’t played since March 27 as he’s dealt with a calf strain. The 32-year-old power forward is questionable, which at least gives him a chance of suiting up for Tuesday’s game against the Suns. If Grant is out again, Scoot Henderson should start again for the Trail Blazers.

Clifford played a good amount of minutes down the stretch of the season for the Kings due to Keegan Murray (ankle) missing time. While the 24-year-old shooting guard had at least 18 points in four of his last five games, he struggled with his shot at times in March and April. Still, there are flashes of potential with Clifford, though in order for him to be fantasy-relevant he has to enter next year in the starting lineup.

Holiday wasn’t particularly efficient, but still had a nice game in the non-shooting categories. The 35-year-old guard is just outside the top-100 in per game value this season. Holiday added one block on the defensive end, which is where he could have his biggest impact for the Trail Blazers in the Play-In Tournament.

Avdija finished the regular season with another excellent game in the win over the Kings on Sunday. The 25-year-old power forward was just four rebounds shy of a triple-double. Avdija also had 25 points and five three-pointers. He finished the season in the top-80 in per game value and will lead Portland as they head into the Play-In tournament.

The three veterans won’t be available for Sunday’s season finale. The absences of DeRozan, Westbrook and Monk have benefited Devin Carter, Nique Clifford and Daeqwon Plowden. That will remain the case on Sunday, with Carter coming off a 29-point effort in Friday’s win over the Warriors.

Murray was cleared to resume contact on March 25, but he’ll end the season with his last game action occurring on February 25. Nique Clifford and Daeqwon Plowden have seen their minutes increase substantially over the final month of the season, and they should play plenty on Sunday.

Thybulle sprained his right ankle during the first half of Friday’s win over the Clippers but returned after halftime. The probable tag suggests that he’ll be cleared to play in a game that the Trail Blazers need to win to secure the No. 8 seed in the West. A loss combined with a Clippers win over the Warriors would drop Portland to the No. 9 seed.

The rookie struggled with his shot in this game but made up for it by getting to the free throw line. This was his fourth career game scoring at least 20 points, with two of those coming in his last four games. There were high expectations for him to be an NBA-ready rookie, and he has had some excellent games this year, though his role early on was too limited for his season-long numbers to be strong. Still, there were some impressive flashes, and if he is able to remain a starter next season, he may be able to make a real impact for fantasy managers.

Plowden continues to pour in the points for the Kings. This was his fourth 20-point game of the season, with all of those coming over the past month. He spent most of this season in the G League, but he has taken advantage of his opportunity to play a larger role role since the trade deadline. He has played well, which should continue in the season finale on Sunday.

Raynaud continues to look like one of the best value picks of the 2025 class. He’s is currently eighth in the class in points per game, but since the All-Star break, he is fifth. Raynaud has been one of the few bright spots in what has been a tumultuous season for Sacramento. Depending on what moves the Kings make this summer, Raynaud could end up being a valuable option in fantasy basketball once again next season.

Carter has had some strong performances as a starter over the past couple of weeks, but this was his best. He set a new career high for scoring in the win, and this was his third 20-point game in his last six outings. The 2024 lottery pick struggled to find a place in Sacramento’s rotation early on, but he has played a consistent role over the past couple of months and has been effective recently. Hopefully he’ll be able to carry some of this into next season, though fantasy managers shouldn’t bank on it.

Clingan has been excellent in the regular season’s final week as he’s had a double-double and three three-pointers in all three games so far. The 22-year-old provided fourth-round per game value this season. With his improved outside shooting, Clingan and the Trail Blazers have some positive momentum heading into the Western Conference playoffs.

Towards the end of a season where he dealt with a back injury, Avdija is finishing strong with at least 26 points in each of his last five games. His 35 points were a game-high in the victory over the Clippers on Friday. Avdija provided eighth-round per game value this season, which could’ve been even better if not for his struggles with turnovers.

Thybulle tweaked something in his right foot before limping to the locker room in the first half. The Trail Blazers called him questionable to return at halftime, but now Thybulle is available to return. The 29-year-old small forward had three steals and two blocks in nine first half minutes.

Thybulle was everywhere on defense with three steals and two blocks in nine minutes off the bench in the first half, but tweaked something in his right foot and came up limping. At halftime, he was deemed questionable to return by the Trail Blazers. His absence doesn’t significantly impact Portland’s rotation.

While the scoring output was modest, Clingan finished Wednesday’s defeat with his 35th double-double of the season, more than triple his 2024-25 tally of eight. And his improvements as a perimeter shooter have major ramifications for the 7-foot-2 center’s fantasy value going forward. While an average of 1.1 three-pointers per game isn’t much, Clingan has made more three-pointers this season (80) than he attempted during his entire rookie campaign (49). He made three of five attempts against the Spurs and is 6-of-11 over his last two games.

Henderson has scored in double figures in five straight and nine of his last ten appearances. However, he has shot just 40.6 percent from the field during this stretch. That, especially the three-point shooting, is an area where Henderson will need to make strides ahead of the 2026-27 season. And with Damian Lillard (Achilles) re-entering the fray, getting the opportunities needed to affect fantasy basketball will become more challenging for Henderson.

While Camara’s three-point percentage for the season is on par with his 2024-25 mark, he has been far more willing to attempt those shots. Entering Wednesday with an average of 7.2 three-point attempts per game, the Trail Blazers forward attempted eight against the Spurs. And in three games this month, Camara has shot 18-of-33 from deep. A win over the Clippers on Friday would keep Portland’s hopes of grabbing the eighth seed alive; they need two wins and the Clippers to go 0-2 over the final two games. To get that done, they’ll need Camara to continue to shoot the ball as well as he has recently.

Scoring-wise, Avdija had a good night, finishing with a true shooting percentage of 63.7 percent. However, six turnovers countered the six assists, and that category has been an issue for him at times this season. Avdija has undoubtedly been one of the NBA’s most improved players, but with increased usage has come a sharp increase in turnovers. Heading into the final two games of the regular season, he is averaging a career-high 3.9 turnovers per game. Avdija will need to clean that up heading into the postseason.

Rostered in eight percent of Yahoo! leagues, Cardwell provided fantasy managers with an excellent stat line on Sunday. One game removed from blocking five shots in a win over the Pelicans, the rookie center recorded four more in the 138-109 loss to the Clippers. Add in the rebounds, steals and field-goal percentage, and Cardwell’s performance was an excellent capper to his Week 23. For fantasy managers in leagues that run through Week 24, the Kings play three games, and Cardwell should continue to play extended minutes.

Sunday was the second time this season in which Raynaud grabbed at least 15 rebounds in a game, the first being a 19-rebound effort against the Pelicans on February 9. The 7-foot-1 rookie has provided solid fantasy value since moving into the starting lineup for the injured Domantas Sabonis, ending Week 23 rostered in 43 percent of Yahoo! leagues. Raynaud’s rookie campaign has been an encouraging one, but his fantasy outlook for 2026-27 depends on Sabonis’ status, as he would offer limited value if relegated to the bench.

Clifford and the Kings lost by 29 points, but that didn’t stop the 24-year-old guard from playing 38 minutes and amassing a full stat line.

The Kings have three games in the final week of the regular season, starting with a matchup against the Warriors on Tuesday.
