5 years agoOklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams will be back in action for Saturday’s contest versus the Portland Trail Blazers following a one-game absence due to a right knee contusion. Adams’ return dampens the fantasy value of Nerlens Noel, who is likely to return to his role as a reserve. Without Danilo Gallinari available, Adams should be tasked with an increased role on the glass, especially when matched up with Blazers center Hassan Whiteside, who is one of four players in the league to average better than 14 rebounds per contest this season.--Jesse Borek
