Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups announced before Sunday night’s game against the Chicago Bulls that guard Shaedon Sharpe was removed from the starting lineup. This development occurred even with guard Anfernee Simons out with an elbow injury.

Identifying five players the Portland Trail Blazers should consider untouchable as they navigate the February 6 trade deadline.

The Portland Trailblazers look to tonight's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks and see if the two-time MVP is in the starting lineup.

Sharpe is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports. The Blazers are tweaking their lineup for the second leg of this back-to-back set due to the absence of Anfernee Simons (elbow) and the return of Deni Avdija.

Anfernee Simons scored 21 points and the Portland Trail Blazers extended their winning streak to three with a 100-79 victory over Orlando on Thursday night, spoiling the return of Magic forward Franz Wagner.

Scoot Henderson had 25 points and the Portland Trail Blazers snapped five-game losing streak with a 113-102 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Sunday night.

Opponents paint a portrait of one of the NBA’s up-and-coming defenders so convincing that they are open about wanting him on their team.

The Los Angeles Clippers could improve their title odds by making a trade with the Portland Trail Blazers for their young guard ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline.
