August 25th - According to ESPN , Portland Trail Blazers guard Sheden Sharp suffered a torn meniscus in his right knee during a recent offseason practice. Sharp is expected to be out for about six months, potentially missing most of the 2026-27 season.
23- year-old Sharp averaged 20.8 points per game last season, but previously missed a significant portion of the season due to a stress fracture of his left fibula. This latest injury will undoubtedly impact his season plans and the Trail Blazers' backcourt rotation.
Sharp previously signed a four- year, $ 90 million contract extension with the Trail Blazers, which will officially take effect this season. His salary for the 2026-27 season will be approximately $ 20 million.
The Trail Blazers currently have three experienced guards: Ja Morant, Damian Lillard, and Jrue Holiday. The three are expected to take on more backcourt duties during Sharp's long-term absence, helping the team maintain its roster depth .
