Avdija has been huge for the Blazers this season, averaging 14.8 points on 33.2 percent from three, 6.4 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.9 steals.
Jerami Grant has also been listed as questionable as he deals with right knee tendinitis. Deandre Ayton (calf strain), Dalano Banton (personal reasons), Matisse Thybulle (ankle sprain) and Robert Williams III (knee sprain) are all out.
The Thunder is also missing a few names with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Jalen Williams, Isaiah Hartenstein and Cason Williams all out. Chet Holmgren has been listed as questionable with a right lower leg issue.
Rose Garden Report’s Sean Highkin has highlighted that a Blazers win might be beneficial to the Thunder in the long run.
