UPDATE: Damian Lillard will be available to play in Wednesday’s game between the Portland Trail Blazers and Charlotte Hornets. 

On Wednesday evening, the Portland Trail Blazers are in North Carolina to face the Charlotte Hornets.    

For the game, their best player Damian Lillard is on the injury report listed as probable (calf).  

Underdog NBA: "Damian Lillard (calf) probable for Wednesday."

Lillard had missed four games in a row before returning on Monday night against the Miami Heat. 

In his return, the superstar guard had 19 points, three rebounds and six assists in 35 minutes of playing time.  

Due to the fact that he is listed as probable, he will more than likely be in the starting lineup.

On the season, he is averaging 29.0 points per contest and has scored 41 points in two different games. 

The Trail Blazers are off to an excellent start to the 2022-23 season, with a 7-3 record in their first ten contests. 

They are currently tied for the third seed in the Western Conference and have a 4-1 record in the five games that they have played on the road so far. 

In their last game, Josh Hart hit a buzzer-beater to give them a 110-107 win over the Heat on the road in Florida. 

As for the Hornets, they come into the game in a massive slump.  

They had started out the season with a solid 3-3 record in their first six games, but are currently in the middle of a five-game losing streak. 

In addition, they continue to play without their best player All-Star LaMelo Ball, who has been ruled out for his 12th straight game.
