Brandon Roy (right hamstring strain) is questionable for Tuesday's game vs the Clippers.

hes out. targets friday per j quick

Roy practiced on Monday -- the first time he has completed a full-contact workout since Jan. 19 in Philadelphia -- but said afterward that he felt tightness at times. That feeling caused him to say he was "doubtful" he would play tonight.

He said a "more realistic" return would be the Blazers' next game, Friday at home against Boston.

Roy said he will make a final determination after the team's morning shootaround, or perhaps after a workout at the Rose Garden an hour before the game.

"How I feel tomorrow will play a factor, but even then, I still think we will look toward Friday as a more of a real date of when I can play," Roy said.
He hasn't played since. The Blazers are 6-8 during the time he has missed because of the hamstring.

"I felt OK today, but again, I don't feel like I was totally back to where I want to be," Roy said Monday. "What I'm trying to judge now is what I can tolerate."

You hold him out as long as is necessary. We'll just have to find a way to hold down the fort until he returns. You don't mess with a hammy or that injury will linger.

 

[MIXUM]

signed KPEE on January 15th

From ESPN Insider

Roy unlikely for tonight

Brandon Roy's strained right hamstring was still giving him trouble during practice last night and he's unlikely to play today, but there's a good chance he'll be ready to go Friday against Boston.

"I'm still keeping it open," Roy told The Columbian. "I felt OK today. But I don't feel like I was totally back to where I'm good at."

"What I'm trying to judge now is what I can tolerate," Roy added. "Because I just don't see this -- it's not going away to where I feel 100 percent."

Man this shit could linger for awhile.
