Top Donovan Clingan News

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Three swats in limited run Saturday

    Clingan chipped in zero points (0-1 FG), five rebounds, three blocks and one steal over six minutes during Saturday's 114-98 loss to Minnesota.

    Clingan made an immediate impact on the defensive end in his limited playing time, recording a game-high mark in swats. The rookie big man has seen a decline in minutes of late, averaging 1.6 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1.0 blocks in only 10.4 minutes per game over his last five outings.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Unlikely to play Tuesday

    Coach Chauncey Billups said Robert Williams is expected to take over Clingan's minutes during Tuesday's game versus the Pacers, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    Clingan hasn't picked up an injury but is expected to cede his minutes to Williams, who was sidelined for Portland's previous four contests. Williams has played in only 17 of the Trail Blazers' 50 contests this season, so Clingan should operate as the team's backup center to Deandre Ayton when Williams is forced to sit out.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Won't start Tuesday

    Clingan will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against the Bucks, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

    The rookie big man will shift back to the bench with Deandre Ayton (knee) returning from a three-game absence. Clingan has appeared in each of the club's last two outings following a five-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, during which he has amassed four points (2-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 19 rebounds, six blocks, five assists and one steal across 38 total minutes.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Instant defensive impact in return

    Clingan (ankle) ended with four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 13 rebounds, four assists, four blocks and one steal across 18 minutes in Friday's 102-97 win over the Hornets.

    Filling in as the Blazers' starting center for the injured Deandre Ayton (knee) on Friday, Clingan appeared to be eased back into action following a five-game absence of his own due to an ankle sprain. Despite being on a workload restriction, Clingan still posted excellent per-minute numbers and is now averaging 10.3 rebounds, 7.6 points, 3.0 blocks and 0.8 steals in 22.3 minutes over nine appearances as a starter this season. Clingan would hold plenty of streaming value if Ayton is unable to play in Sunday's matchup with Oklahoma City.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Available and starting Friday

    Clingan (ankle) is available for Friday's game against the Hornets, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    With Deandre Ayton (knee) and Robert Williams (hand) both sidelined Friday, Clingan will also jump right into Portland's starting lineup down low following a five-game absence with an ankle injury. The rookie big man makes sense as a strong plug-and-play fantasy option against Charlotte, as Clingan has averaged 10.0 rebounds, 8.0 points, 2.9 blocks and 0.8 steals in 22.9 minutes across eight games as a starter this year.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Likely to return against Charlotte

    Clingan (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game versus the Hornets.

    Clingan is expected to return to action Friday after missing Portland's previous five contests due to a left ankle sprain. With Deandre Ayton (knee) and Robert Williams (hand) both out, Clingan should draw the start at center if he's upgraded to available against Charlotte.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Out against Orlando

    Clingan (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Magic.

    Clingan will miss his fifth straight game with a left ankle sprain. With Deandre Ayton (knee) out for Thursday's game in Orlando, Robert Williams will likely see the bulk of the minutes in the frontcourt.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Out at least one week

    The Trail Blazers announced Wednesday that Clingan has been diagnosed with a mild left ankle sprain and will be re-evaluated in one week.

    Clingan tweaked his ankle late in Tuesday's 132-114 loss to Brooklyn and will be out for at least the next four games -- and quite likely longer -- before the Trail Blazers provide another update on his status. While Clingan is sidelined, the Trail Blazers could look to Robert Williams (illness) to step in as the top backup to starting center Deandre Ayton.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Tweaks ankle late Tuesday

    Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups said that Clingan tweaked his ankle late in the fourth quarter of Tuesday's 132-114 loss to the Nets, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    Though starting center Deandre Ayton (calf) returned to action, he had a roughly even split of the playing time at center with Clingan, who logged 22 minutes to Ayton's 24. The blowout nature of the contest had a lot to do with it, but Clingan also outperformed Ayton, finishing with four points (1-1 FG, 2-2 FT), 14 boards, two assists, two steals and one block. Despite the strong showing off the bench, Clingan's ankle is now a concern heading into Thursday's game against the Clippers. Billups acknowledged that the Trail Blazers aren't yet certain on the severity of Clingan's injury, so the rookie could be headed for further testing.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Returns to action

    Clingan (head) checked back into Tuesday's game versus the Nets with 10:56 remaining in the second quarter.

    Clingan left Tuesday's contest in the first quarter but returned shortly after with a cut on his face, per Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland. Regardless, the rookie big man should continue to operate as Portland's backup center to Deandre Ayton.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Heads to locker room Tuesday

    Clingan went back to the locker room after sustaining an apparent head injury in the first quarter of Tuesday's game against the Nets, Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland reports.

    Clingan took a knee to the head and was helped off the court by the training staff with a towel over his face. The rookie big man will likely undergo further testing to rule out a concussion, and he should be considered questionable to return until the team provides an update on his status.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Reverts to bench Tuesday

    Clingan will come off the bench in Tuesday's game against Brooklyn, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    The rookie got the spot start for Deandre Ayton in Saturday's loss to Miami, during which Clingan posted eight points (4-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal across 27 minutes. The big man should still see significant playing time off the bench against the Nets with Robert Williams (illness) sidelined.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Starting Saturday

    Clingan will start at center against the Heat on Saturday, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    This will be a big opportunity for Clingan with both Deandre Ayton (calf) and Robert Williams (illness) sidelined. In seven starts this season, Clingan posted averages of 8.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 3.0 blocks in 22.3 minutes.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Records double-double off bench

    Clingan ended Thursday's 117-111 loss to the Mavericks with 11 points (4-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 24 minutes.

    The Trail Blazers slid Clingan in for Deandre Ayton, who had a difficult time getting past Dereck Lively. Clingan was more effective, although he enjoyed more success when Daniel Gafford was on the floor. Ayton and the Trail Blazers are bound to part ways eventually, and although Clingan still needs more seasoning, he may end up with an enhanced role if a potential suitor emerges with a deal for Ayton that the team can't pass up.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Good to go against Dallas

    Clingan (rest) is available for Thursday's game versus the Mavericks.

    Clingan will return to action Thursday after missing the first leg of Portland's back-to-back Wednesday due to rest purposes. The rookie forward should continue to operate as the backup center to Deandre Ayton. Clingan is averaging 4.7 points and 4.5 rebounds in 13.8 minutes across his last 10 appearances.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Ruled out Wednesday

    Clingan (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's contest against New Orleans, Casey Holdahl of the Trail Blazers' official site reports.

    Wednesday night marks the first of a back-to-back for the Blazers, and they elected to rest Clingan so he could play Thursday in Dallas. Deandre Ayton and Robert Williams will likely occupy the big-man minutes for the Blazers.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Questionable for Wednesday

    Clingan (rest) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.

    Wednesday is the front end of Portland's back-to-back set, so the team could opt to hold the rookie first-rounder out of action against New Orleans. The Blazers would figure to lean on Deandre Ayton from the first unit if Clingan gets the night off Wednesday, and Robert Williams would be in line to take on the backup center role in this case. Ayton has averaged 16.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.3 blocks in 31.9 minutes across six outings with Clingan out of action in 2024-25.

  • Trail Blazers' Donovan Clingan: Serves as primary backup

    Clingan totaled four points (2-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt), five rebounds and one block in 14 minutes during Saturday's 105-102 victory over the Bucks.

    Clingan played 14 minutes as the primary backup behind Deandre Ayton, seemingly assuming the role by himself, as opposed to a timeshare with Robert Williams. Although the move has not yielded significant production, it is definitely a situation to monitor moving forward. If and when Portland opts to lean more into their young core, Clingan could be the first in line to soak up more minutes at the center spot.
