Anfernee Simons Forced To Exit With Ankle Injury
10 months agoPortland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (ankle) was forced to leave the game against the Detroit Pistons on Thursday night with a left ankle sprain. He officially checked out of the game with a little less than half of the third quarter left to go and was deemed questionable to return at the time. He never did return and finished the game with 29 points, five assists, two rebounds, and two turnovers while shooting 9-for-19 from the floor and 4-for-12 from deep. Simons posted the best plus/minus on the team, by far, after the Trail Blazers gave up a 23-point lead. With Simons injury history, combined with the Blazers not competing for much, fantasy managers will want to stay tuned for an update on his ankle because he may miss some more time depending on the severity.
