Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Vit Krejci (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's meeting with the Dallas Mavericks. This will mark his seventh consecutive absence due to a left calf contusion. Krejci was listed as doubtful on the initial injury report, so his return doesn't seem to be close. With him out of the rotation, Scott Henderson, Matisse Thybulle, and Kris Murray will be the primary bench contributors for the Blazers. Portland's second unit could be in for a fun night, facing a Dallas team that allows the sixth-most field-goal attempts in the league to opposing reserves.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Vit Krejci (calf) won't be part of the action on Wednesday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. He will sit out a sixth consecutive game due to a left calf contusion. Portland initially listed Krejci as questionable for the contest, so his return looks to be close and might happen later this week. The Trail Blazers will return to action on Friday against the Dallas Mavericks. Krejci has averaged 7.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 19.9 minutes since joining the team from Atlanta on Feb. 1.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Vit Krejci (calf) is out for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Krejci is set to miss his fifth straight contest due to a bruised left calf. His next chance to return is on Wednesday against Milwaukee. While the 25-year-old is out of action, Scoot Henderson and Matisse Thybulle will continue to see extended minutes. Henderson could be viewed as a short-term streaming option, as the 22-year-old has averaged 14.0 points, 3.6 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.9 threes across nine outings since the All-Star break.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Vit Krejci (calf) will exit the lineup on Monday against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed as doubtful on the initial injury report, and Krejci hasn't recovered enough from a calf contusion to play. Since moving to Portland, Krejci has averaged 7.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 19.9 minutes per game. In his absence, Kris Murray could return to the rotation on Monday night, while Scoot Henderson and Matisse Thybulle may also pick up some of the available minutes.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Atlanta Hawks traded guard Vit Krejci to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for center Duop Reath and two future second-round draft picks. Krejci began his career playing with the Oklahoma City Thunder before spending the last four seasons in Atlanta, most recently amassing a career-high 9.0 points while shooting 42.3% from deep throughout the 2025 campaign. However, he hasn't been productive enough to warrant routine starting consideration in any fantasy format. Although Krejci might get more opportunities to produce in Portland, he'll need to do more moving ahead to convince fantasy managers he's worth adding to the roster.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Vit Krejci (back) has been ruled out for 3-4 weeks. The 24-year-old made an early exit against the Orlando Magic on Monday and has been diagnosed with a non-displaced lumbar fracture. Krejci has played well for the Hawks in recent months since cementing a spot in the rotation. He has averaged 9.7 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.3 assists in 27.0 over his past 10 appearances. Atlanta's new-look bench -- with Terance Mann, Caris LeVert, and Georges Niang -- should share Krejci's minutes during his absence.

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Vit Krejci (groin) was limited to 10 minutes in Monday's matchup against Washington. He left the contest in the second quarter due to a right adductor strain. Krejci had seven points and one steal before his exit. He has averaged 4.5 points in 14.0 minutes for the season. Krejci doesn't play a large part in the rotation, but Atlanta is already battling injuries, with De'Andre Hunter (knee), Kobe Bufkin (shoulder), and Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) all out. Garrison Mathews, Larry Nance Jr., and David Roddy could be in for a busy night off the pine when the Hawks have a rematch against Washington.

The Atlanta Hawks are weighing the fact that guard Vit Krejci will be a restricted free agent in the offseason, which gives them the right to match any offer sheet. The hope is that they will be able to keep Krejci on a four-year deal that begins next season. After being waived by the Minnesota Timberwolves last October, Krejci signed a two-way contract with the Hawks in late December and made an impact for Atlanta with Trae Young sidelined for the majority of the campaign's later stages. The 23-year-old point forward averaged only 7.7 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists over his last 15 games (nine starts), but he hit 1.6 three-pointers per game on 43.6% shooting from deep over this period and proved he could be a versatile rotational piece.

Atlanta Hawks guard Vit Krejci has been waived by the organization on Wednesday. He was on the team with a non-guaranteed deal and it appears the Hawks wanted to cut down their roster one spot. The 23-year-old made 23 appearances for the Hawks last season, but only averaged 5.7 minutes per game. He'll attempt to catch on elsewhere after getting cut by Atlanta. It's worth noting that Krejci suffered an ankle injury during the Summer League. It's unknown if that issue is going to impact him with basketball activities going forward.

Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Vit Krejci (knee) underwent arthroscopic left knee surgery Tuesday in an attempt to alleviate a nagging ailment that kept him from playing at 100% in 2021-22. Krejci appeared in 30 games (eight starts) for OKC and averaged 6.2 points and 3.4 boards, shooting 40.7% overall. A second-round selection in the 2020 NBA Draft, Krejci's deal for next year is only partially guaranteed, which doesn't cement him a spot on a rebuilding Thunder roster. The rookie delivered 10 PPG across six April contests and is on track to begin next season healthy.
