Trail Blazers' Maurice Harkless: Ruled out Friday vs. Grizzlies
Harkless (calf) will not play in Friday's matchup against the Grizzlies, Trail Blazers' beat writer Casey Holdahl reports.
Analysis:
The absence will be the second straight for Harkless while he continues to deal with a calf strain. He recently lost his starting job to Evan Turner, so Allen Crabbe figures to see a boost in minutes providing depth at small forward with Harkless out. His next opportunity to return will be Sunday against the Warriors.
