Limited role continues
Sharpe had 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 114-110 Play-In Tournament victory over the Suns.
Analyse
Sharpe exceeded 20 minutes for the first time since returning from a 27-game absence due to a leg injury. While he does appear to be trending in the right direction, it is clear the Trail Blazers are taking a cautious approach. Based on what we have seen in his three games since getting back on the floor, expect to see Sharpe flirting with 25 minutes sooner rather than later.

Logs 15 minutes in return
Sharpe accumulated eight points (3-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 15 minutes during Friday's 116-97 win over the Clippers.
Analyse
Sharpe returned to action after a 28-game absence and received a sizable minutes restriction. If he can reach 100 percent in the coming days, his return should provide an essential boost to the team's production. The move will likely send Scoot Henderson to the bench and reinstall Jrue Holiday at point guard.

Cleared to play Friday
Sharpe (calf) is available for Friday's game against the Clippers, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.
Analyse
Sharpe will return to action following a 28-game absence due to a left fibula stress reaction, though he'll come off the bench and operate on a minutes restriction, per Danny Marang of 1080 The Fan Portland. Still, his return will leave fewer minutes available for guys like Scoot Henderson, Matisse Thybulle and Kris Murray. Sharpe has averaged 21.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.4 steals across 30.0 minutes per game in 48 regular-season appearances (42 starts) thus far.

Questionable versus Clippers
Sharpe (calf) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers.
Analyse
Sharpe had a small chance to return for Wednesday's game against San Antonio. However, he was ultimately ruled out. If Sharpe can get back on the floor Friday after missing the last two months, his workload will presumably be lighter than usual, meaning Scoot Henderson might remain in the starting lineup.
