Derrick Jones Jr. Ruled Out For Thursday
4 years agoPortland Trail Blazers forward Derrick Jones Jr. (foot) won't play Thursday against the Philadelphia 76ers. With guard Damian Lillard (abdominal) also out, the Trail Blazers could be in a bit of a rough spot Thursday night. Expect to see an increase in work for Rodney Hood and Carmelo Anthony, who both become intriguing DFS plays. Portland's going to have to find offense somewhere, so why not from a pair of players who've shown scoring upside in the past. Carmelo in particular seems suited for a throwback 'Melo game.
