Trail Blazers' Justise Winslow: Gets additional procedure on ankle
Rotowire
The Trail Blazers announced Friday that Winslow (ankle) underwent a bone marrow aspirate concentrate procedure in March and will be re-evaluated in the coming weeks.
Winslow doesn't appear to have a firm timetable for his return at this point, and with the regular season just over three weeks away, the 26-year-old could struggle to gain clearance before the Trail Blazers' April 9 finale versus Golden State. He's been out of action since Dec. 21 and could require considerable ramp-up time once he's cleared for full-contact, full-court work.

Trail Blazers' Justise Winslow: Out at least two weeks
Rotowire
The Trail Blazers announced Monday that Winslow will be re-evaluated in two weeks while he recovers from a Grade 2 left ankle sprain.
Winslow had already missed Portland's most recent game Friday in Denver after suffering the injury in the third quarter of a 101-98 loss to the Thunder on Wednesday. Even if he's cleared to resume on-court work after the two-week re-evaluation period, Winslow will almost certainly require some additional ramp-up time in practice, so his absence is likely to extend into the back half of January. Keon Johnson and Trendon Watford profile as the biggest beneficiaries from a playing-time standpoint while Winslow is sidelined.

Trail Blazers' Justise Winslow: Brings defense in starting role
Rotowire
Winslow finished with two points (1-4 FG), four steals, three rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes Saturday in the Trail Blazers' 107-95 win over the Rockets.
Filling in as a starter for the injured Jerami Grant (back), Winslow proved to be a useful streaming option for steals but offered little else. Assuming Grant's injury isn't a long-term concern, Winslow could seen his minutes drop back into the teens as soon as Monday's game at Oklahoma City.
