Harkless (concussion) is unlikely to play Saturday night in Sacremento.

Analysis:

Harkless suffered a concussion in practice Wednesday and has had to sit out basketball activities the last two days. He's going through the standard protocol and won't be made available to play until he's symptom-free. While Portland will play it safe with Harkless now, he'll likely be fine for the start of the season.
