Practices Friday
Head coach Chauncey Billups relayed that Thybulle wasn't restricted and looked good during practice. The defensive-minded swingman has yet to make an appearance this season due to a right ankle sprain, though he was available to play during Wednesday's loss to the Knicks. Thybulle's next chance to make his season debut will come Sunday against the Raptors.

Doesn't practice Friday
Grant has missed Portland's previous two contests due to right knee tendinitis. The 30-year-old forward's absence from practice is a bad sign of his availability for Monday's matchup with Washington.

Enters concussion protocol
Walker exited Wednesday's loss to the Knicks early due to the head injury and didn't return. The Trail Blazers will likely provide an update on the 22-year-old's status Saturday, as the club prepares to face Toronto on Sunday. If Walker is ruled out, Kris Murray and Robert Williams could see a bump in minutes.

Opportunities at the NBA level have been few and far between for Rupert, so this move makes sense to get him some live reps.
