Trail Blazers All-Star forward Deni Avdija was not on the table in trade talks for Antetokounmpo, and he remains off the table in Brown discussions as of now, league sources told HoopsHype. Portland’s other young players, such as Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe, are considered available. With Boston considering center upgrades and needing to replace Brown’s position if he’s traded, Portland’s Donovan Clingan and 2025 All-Defensive forward Toumani Camara would both be coveted by Boston. However, neither has been put on the table at this time.

‪The Portland Trail Blazers may be getting some reinforcements back at the end of the regular season and ahead of the Western Conference Play-In Tournament. Shaedon Sharpe and Vit Krejci were both upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the LA Clippers.

Sean Highkin: Shaedon Sharpe and Vit Krejci are both upgraded to "doubtful" for tomorrow in San Antonio, which if following usual injury reporting patterns means there's a chance they could play Friday vs. the Clippers.

Sean Highkin: "(Shaedon Sharpe)’s the most talented player on the entire roster. The athleticism, the dunks, the highlights, he's gotten more efficient as a shooter year over year. He has the physical tools to be a really elite defender. But the issue has been general effort and focus. Last season, the day that their second-half run started, Chauncey (Billups) told us he was moving Shaedon to the bench and putting Kris Murray in the starting lineup. He said publicly he hadn't liked the way Shaedon had been engaged on defense. Shaedon responded, won his job back, but it's kind of come and gone since then. If you put Scoot (Henderson)'s attitude, mentality, and work ethic in his body, he would be Anthony Edwards."
