Availability
The Grizzlies signed Rayan Rupert to a 10-day contract.
Fantasy Impact
Rupert was waived earlier in February by the Trail Blazers. He will remain off the fantasy radar.
Rayan Rupert scored 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3PT) and added three rebounds, two assists, and three steals in 16 minutes off the bench in Thursday's win over the Hawks.
Fantasy Impact
Rupert scored 13 points for the second consecutive game and has now reached double figures in scoring four times this season. Meanwhile, his three steals established a new career-high. Rupert is earning himself more playing time in the Blazers' rotation as he has played more than 10 minutes in 10 straight games and is averaging 5.2 points during that stretch. Portland returns to action on Saturday against the Lakers.
The Trail Blazers exercised the team option of Rayan Rupert.
Fantasy Impact
Rupert is unlikely to hold fantasy value next season with Portland. He'll be a restricted free agent next offseason.
Rayan Rupert scored 19 points (7-17 FG, 1-7 3PT, 4-5 FT) to go along with four rebounds, two assists and two steals in the Trail Blazers 133-126 loss against the Jazz.
Fantasy Impact
Rupert posted his career-high in scoring off the bench. He could hold some deeper streaming appeal in the final two games of the season.
Rayan Rupert (ankle) is active for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans.
Fantasy Impact
Rupert will be available to play on Saturday. This was the expected outcome, given that he had a probable tag coming into the day because of an ankle injury. He may not get much work, however, and fantasy managers are better off looking for another fantasy option to start.
