Dennis Smith Jr. Out On Monday Night
3 years agoPortland Trail Blazers guard Dennis Smith Jr. entered health and safety protocols and won't play on Monday night against Dallas. Jusuf Nurkic, Ben McLemore, and Robert Covington carry the same designation, and with C.J. McCollum (lung) remaining out, the team will surely be short-handed. Fortunately, Damian Lillard (personal) is available, so he and Norman Powell should get most of the work offensively against the Mavericks. Anfernee Simons, Larry Nance Jr., and Nassir Little should also get some extra run, and they are worth an add for those looking to fill a void.
