UPDATE: Grant has been ruled out.
Roughly two hours before tip-off, Jerami Grant has been added to the injury report for Tuesday’s game vs. the Suns with an illness.
Grant is playing 27.8 minutes per game this season for Portland, averaging 18.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists. The news comes at a rough time for the Blazers as they have lost two in a row and will be looking to avoid a three game skid.
If Grant can’t go, Kris Murray is the likely replacement off the bench. Murray played 32 minutes off the bench in Portland’s most recent game, a 138-133 OT loss to Dallas.
