Top Dalano Banton News

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Good to go Friday vs. Kings

    Banton (knee) is available for Friday's game against Sacramento, Sean Highkin of Rip City Radio 620 Portland reports.

    Banton was initially listed as questionable for Friday's game due to left knee soreness, but the third-year guard will play. Banton would see an uptick in playing time if Scoot Henderson (quadriceps) is unable to play.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Downgraded to questionable Friday

    Banton is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Kings due to left knee soreness.

    Banton was a late addition to the injury report and will likely remain a game-time decision Saturday. The 25-year-old guard and Scoot Henderson (quad) were both late additions, and if either are unable to play, Rayan Rupert and Kris Murray (chest) could see an uptick in playing time off the bench.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Scores 11 points in loss

    Banton logged 11 points (4-10 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Monday's 123-98 loss to Memphis.

    After totaling only eight points and shooting 2-for-15 from the field in his last two appearances, Banton recorded his 10th game with 10-plus points Monday. The 25-year-old still struggled with efficiency, though he did finish as one of five Blazers to reach the double-digit mark in points. Banton has carved out a significant role off the bench thus far, and he has played 20 or more minutes in seven of his last 10 appearances.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Scores season-high 23 points

    Banton supplied 23 points (9-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal across 26 minutes during Sunday's 114-110 win over the Hawks.

    Banton posted his best scoring output of the season in this win over the Hawks and continued his solid stretch of play, as he's scored in double digits coming off the bench in all but one of his nine November appearances. He's averaging 13.3 points, 3.0 assists and 2.2 rebounds per game in that span.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Another solid outing

    Banton registered 13 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 106-98 victory over Minnesota.

    Banton has now posted double-digit points in seven of his last eight appearances. The 25-year-old guard has also recorded at least one steal and one block in four of those games, including in Wednesday's win.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Productive off bench once again

    Banton accumulated 13 points (4-18 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 20 minutes during Sunday's 134-89 loss to Memphis.

    Banton owns one of the highest point-per-minute-played rates in the NBA, and he didn't need a lot of time to make his presence felt -- although it was in another blowout defeat. Banton is averaging 12.0 points on 13.5 minutes per game across six appearances in November.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Goes for 20 points Monday

    Banton ended with 20 points (8-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and two steals across 12 minutes during Monday's 118-100 win over New Orleans.

    Banton delivered explosive offense off the bench for the Trail Blazers, needing just 12 minutes to reach the 20-point plateau while missing just one shot from the field. Banton has been highly efficient for the Blazers since he's scored in double digits in his last three games despite not playing more than 12 minutes in any of them. However, that streak of efficiency is bound to stop at some point. Ultimately, and regardless of how much of a scoring machine he can be, Banton shouldn't have a lot of upside if he's still playing under 15 minutes per contest.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Staying in Portland

    The Trail Blazers exercised Banton's $2.2 million team option for the 2024-25 season Saturday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Banton will return to Portland for his first full season with the Trail Blazers after he was acquired from the Celtics in Feb. 8. While Portland shut down several key contributors with injuries late last season, the 24-year-old stepped into a focal role for Portland, averaging 16.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 0.9 steals over 30 contests with the club. Though he played well enough to stick around in Portland in 2024-25 and may even have earned himself a rotation spot, Banton is still expected to see a steep role reduction if the Trail Blazers have the likes of Jerami Grant (hamstring), Shaedon Sharpe (abdomen) and Anfernee Simons (knee) available to begin the upcoming season.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Drops 17 points in finale

    Banton racked up 17 points (6-26 FG, 0-15 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and three steals in 39 minutes before getting ejected from Sunday's 121-82 loss to the Kings.

    Banton came back to earth in the final game of the season, but there's no denying his prolific stat lines in the closing weeks. Portland has a $2.2M team option for next season, and Banton's standout play may compel the organization to pick it up.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Tossed in finale

    Banton was ejected from Sunday's game against the Kings after receiving a Flagrant 2 foul with 3:30 left in the fourth quarter, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.

    An abysmal shooting performance proceeded Banton's ejection, as he cemented himself in Trail Blazer history by becoming the first player to attempt 15 three-pointers without a make. Despite the disappointing end to the campaign, Banton made his mark and may have solidified an opportunity next season with his stellar play over the final two months of 2023-24. Since March 1 (23 appearances), Banton has averaged 18.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.0 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.7 blocks in 31.9 minutes per game.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Starting Sunday

    Banton will start at point guard in Sunday's season finale in Sacramento.

    With Scoot Henderson (hip) sidelined, Banton will be inserted in the starting lineup. He has averaged 18.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists across 33.1 minutes in eight games as a starter.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Posts 28 points in return to action

    Banton ended with 28 points (9-26 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 38 minutes during Friday's 116-107 loss to Houston.

    Banton is flashiing potential that evaded him during stints with Boston and Toronto, and his resurgent play could allow Portland some flexibility as they make offseason decisions on its roster. The Trail Blazers made a solid investment in Scoot Henderson, but with Banton emerging as a scoring threat, the team may be able to make some deals in the offseason to clear room for him. They could also trade him to a team that needs a proven backcourt option.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Cleared to play Friday

    Banton (ankle) is available for Friday's game against Houston.

    Banton will return from a one-game absence after sitting out Thursday against the Warriors. He had a featured role prior to the injury, and he's likely to be very involved in the offense Friday.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Iffy for Friday

    Banton (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Rockets.

    Banton was sidelined for Thursday's loss to the Warriors and may miss the second half of Portland's back-to-back. He's been one of the lone bright spots for the Trail Blazers to end the 2023-24 season, as he's averaged 18.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 31.6 minutes over 22 appearances since the beginning of March.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Out against Warriors

    Banton (ankle) won't play against the Warriors on Thursday.

    Banton's absence is a tough blow for Portland, as he's been a huge part of their rotation in recent games while several key players have been sidelined with injuries. The guard should be considered questionable for Friday against the Rockets while he recovers from a left ankle sprain.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Top scorer off bench in defeat

    Banton ended with 28 points (11-23 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, nine assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Sunday's 124-107 loss to the Celtics.

    Banton led all players in Sunday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-high-tying trio of threes and leading the Trail Blazers in assists in a near double-double performance. Banton tied a season-high assist mark, tying his total from March 27 against Atlanta. He has now recorded 28 or more points in five games this season, all of which have occurred over the last month of the year.

  • Trail Blazers' Dalano Banton: Leads bench in all-around outing

    Banton ended with 21 points (8-20 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-5 FT), eight rebounds and eight assists over 34 minutes in Friday's 108-102 win over Washington.

    Banton did it all for Portland off the bench, leading all bench players in scoring and rebounds while leading the Trail Blazers in assists in extended time with the second unit. Banton posted his second game of the season with eight or more assists and tallied his seventh game with at least five rebounds and five assists. He has now surpassed the 20-point mark in seven contests, including in four of his last six appearances.
