Re: Nassir Little: It’s possible to play w/ a torn shoulder (glenoid) labrum but it requires routine maintenance to address any lingering symptoms & strengthening of the surrounding muscles to assist w/ stability. – 2:54 PM

Significant injuries continue to pummel the Blazers: The left shoulder labral tear for forward Nassir Little is likely to sideline him for the rest of the season, sources tell ESPN. – 2:42 PM
Michael Gallagher @MikeSGallagher
Hate seeing Nassir Little (shoulder) go down. Just recorded a pod with @DrewDinkmeyer and said Nassir was one of the most improved players to not get much national love. He’s been so good at off-ball scoring, offensive rebounding for a wing, and so many facets of defenses. – 2:37 PM

Sean Highkin @highkin
Chauncey Billups does not believe the injuries to either Robert Covington or Nassir Little to be of serious or long-term concern. “Nothing major” in either case after initial concern yesterday. – 8:17 PM
