In their upcoming matchup against the Houston Rockets on Friday, the Blazers announced that Avdija (back) is doubtful to play.

This serves as a significant one in Avdija's status, as he could become unavailable again for Portland.

He already missed the team's last five games due to a lower back injury, and the Blazers are fully cautious about his health for the rest of the season.

Back issues have hampered the Israeli star for the second half of 2025-26, and it is disappointing considering that he is enjoying a career year. He is averaging 24.4 points, 7.0 rebounds and 6.6 assists in 48 games.
