Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is ready for his season debut on Wednesday against the New York Knicks. The defensive specialist has faced tough luck with injuries in the 2024-25 season, undergoing a knee procedure and suffering a Grade 2 right ankle sprain. Thybulle is not expected to take on a major role for the Trail Blazers, but his defensive ability could be a big asset for the team in certain situations. During his five years in the league, Thybulle has averaged 1.5 steals per game while earning two NBA All-Defensive Second Team selections.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will remain sidelined for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has yet to feature this season due to a right ankle injury, and it remains unclear when Thybulle will be ready to hit the court. The two-time NBA All-Defensive Second Team member would give a boost to Portland's struggling defense, but Thybulle is not a good fantasy asset. The 27-year-old has averaged 4.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.5 steals for his NBA career.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is limited to standstill shooting in practice, head coach Chauncey Billups revealed on Tuesday. An ankle injury has kept the 27-year-old off the court for the entire campaign so far, and Thybulle's return doesn't appear to be imminent. Last season, Thybulle averaged 5.4 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 1.7 steals in 22.9 minutes. He has earned two NBA All-Defensive Second Team selections during his five-year career. Thybulle's addition would help Portland improve its defense, but the former first-round pick lacks fantasy appeal due to his limited offensive arsenal.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (knee) is expected to miss an extended period of time. Thybulle has been dealing with inflammation in his knee throughout the preseason. He has decided to undergo a procedure that will sideline him for 3-4 weeks. His absence won't make a huge impact considering the Blazers do have depth at the forward spot. The loss of Thybulle should mean more minutes for Kris Murray, Toumani Camara, and Dalano Banton. However, it's not enough playing time to push any of these players into reliable fantasy player territory. The hope is that Thybulle will be back at some point in November or early December.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will be sidelined for Wednesday's contest against the Hornets. He's seen a total of 12 minutes of action across the last nine games as Thybulle continues to battle a right ankle injury. This will be the second consecutive game he misses. Kris Murray benefits from Thybulle's absence, but he's a very risky fantasy option due to his inconsistency. On paper, the matchup against Charlotte is a very favorable one for Murray and the Trail Blazers, as only Utah has a poorer defensive rating than the Hornets.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. Thybulle missed five games due to an ankle injury before returning to action on Friday. Sadly, Thybulle only lasted seven minutes before exiting the game due to a right ankle issue. It appears Thybulle came back too early, so the Blazers are going to let him get fully healthy. Rayan Rupert and Dalano Banton should see more playing time with Thybulle sidelined on Monday.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will be available for Friday's battle with the Heat. He's gotten rid of a questionable tag and will end a five-game absence on Friday. Thybulle averages 23.1 minutes per game for the season but could get a few extra shifts on Friday due to the absences of Jerami Grant (hamstring) and Toumani Camara (ribs). However, he's offensively very limited and has fantasy value only as a defensive contributor.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat due to a right ankle impingement. The 27-year-old missed the previous five games, as Portland is currently dealing with numerous injuries. If Thybulle can take the court on Friday, he could have a significant role since Jerami Grant (hamstring) is considered doubtful, and Toumani Camara (ribs) is out. If Thybulle is unable to play, Dalano Banton and Rayan Rupert will likely be given plenty of minutes.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) will remain on the shelf Wednesday versus Atlanta. The team has once again downgraded him from questionable to out, meaning Thybulle will miss a fifth consecutive game. It looks like Thybulle is close to returning from an ankle issue, but it's tough to predict when he will be back. His next chance to make a comeback comes on Friday in a matchup against Miami. Portland continues to carry a lot of injuries, which will give Rayan Rupert a new opportunity to start on Wednesday. He is expected to be joined by Scoot Henderson, Kris Murray, Toumani Camara, and Duop Reath.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against Houston. He's played in only one of the last five games and is dealing with a right ankle issue. Thybulle's injury has left Portland without a defensive expert, who averages 1.8 steals per game. Rayan Rupert's role has grown during Thybulle's absence, but he's yet to make a mark in fantasy basketball. Dalano Banton also had a chance to eat up extra minutes if Thybulle remains out on Monday, although this is going to be a difficult matchup for Portland against a streaking team that boasts a strong defense.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This was expected as Thybulle has already missed multiple games due to an ankle issue. The Blazers are banged up right now, so Kris Murray will likely start in place of Thybulle on Saturday. Last game, Murray posted 21 points and seven rebounds in 36 minutes of action. He could be someone worth looking at as a possible streaming option for Saturday's slate.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Nuggets. Due to right ankle impingement, he might be absent for a third consecutive game. Thybulle's absence opens up minutes for Dalano Banton and Rayan Rupert, who will also benefit from Anfernee Simons' (knee) exit from the lineup. Banton has looked very promising with the Trail Blazers and should play a big role against a weakened Denver squad that won't have Jamal Murray (ankle) and Nikola Jokic (back) available on Saturday.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This doesn't come as much of a surprise given the Blazers place in the standings. They will likely continue to rest their players at anything less than 100 percent. Kris Murray will move into the starting five with Thybulle unable to play. Murray has posted back-to-back double digit scoring games, but that doesn't mean too much. He'll be a low-end streaming option for Friday's game.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has received a questionable tag ahead of their matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday. He's been unable to play a full game over the team's last three games, so if he does return, it's unclear how many minutes he'll receive right away. They're dealing with a lot of injuries at the moment though, so Thybulle could be a decent streaming option in deeper leagues, but Anfernee Simons and Scoot Henderson should get most of the minutes in the backcourt. If he's unable to suit up again, Kris Murray, Toumani Camara, and Dalano Banton will all see a large chunk of minutes.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has shaken off injury ahead of Monday's tilt against Chicago and will be available for the contest after missing one game. Thybulle has done very well lately to live up to his reputation as a defensive specialist, recording six blocks and nine steals across his last four appearances. He's ranked third in the league with 1.8 steals per game, and Thybulle's high-level defensive ability secures him regular playing time. However, the 27-year-old offers very little offensively, which is something fantasy managers always must consider.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. Due to the high amount of injuries that this team has faced this season, Thybulle has been playing a lot more than he did the previous year. Two members of the backcourt have already been ruled out and Jerami Grant (hamstring) is currently doubtful. That means if Thybulle does play, he'd likely see north of 20 minutes in this contest. If he misses his second consecutive game, however, Dalano Banton, Scoot Henderson, and Jabari Walker would all see extra minutes on the floor.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's meeting with New Orleans. The defensive specialist comes out of the lineup for just the second time in 28 games. Thybulle has averaged nearly 25 minutes per game for the month, meaning there will be a nice chunk of minutes to be shared around the rest of the bench. This could be a good matchup for Portland's second unit, as the Pelicans have a tendency to give up plenty of bench points, with only 11 teams allowing more across the season.

Portland Trail Blazers forward Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Blazers are seemingly banged up everywhere ahead of this matchup. Thybulle hasn't been a great scoring option for them, but he has been a reliable defensive player. His absence would probably mean more minutes for Rayan Rupert (ankle) or Jabari Walker (hip) but both are uncertain coming into this game. Fantasy managers will have to check back for another update on Saturday.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (hip) won't play on Monday versus Minnesota. He's been forced out of the lineup by a sore left hip. Thybulle, who turned 27 on Monday, will miss only his third game of the season. With Deandre Ayton (hand), Jerami Grant (quadriceps), and Toumani Camara (illness) also ruled out for Monday, we're about to see a lot of unusual lineups by Portland, with Anfernee Simons the only remaining regular starter left standing.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle (hip) has drawn a questionable tag for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The defensive specialist has only missed two games all season, but he's dealing with hip soreness right now which could potentially knock him out of a third game. He hasn't been the best fantasy asset despite getting regular minutes on a rebuilding Blazers squad. If he's unable to suit up, there will be more opportunities for Ashton Hagans, Jabari Walker, and Dalano Banton off of the bench. The former two would be the better streaming options after receiving north of 25 minutes each in the last couple of games.
