Portland Trail Blazers rookie Toumani Camara will miss the remainder of the season due to a broken rib and kidney laceration. Camara was injured in the Blazers loss at the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday.

Camara remained in Atlanta but has since been released. He'll travel back to Portland soon, but will miss the remainder of the season.

Camara started 49 of his 70 games for the Trail Blazers as a rookie. The rookie forward averaged 7.5 points and 4.9 rebounds. Portland acquired Camara ahead of the season from the Phoenix Suns in the three-team trade that sent Damian Lillard to the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Portland Trail Blazers have had some miserable injury luck this season, especially at the guard/wing position. That may be turning around, as the season heads down the stretch.

Shaedon Sharpe, who has been out since mid-January after a core muscle injury, is nearing a return. Sharpe will join the Rip City Remix of the G League for some practices, as he ramps up his conditioning toward a return.

Sharpe has already missed 39 games this season, after missing only two in his rookie year. In his sophomore season, Sharpe has averaged 15.9 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists in 33.1 minutes per game. The 6-foot-6 wing has also started in 25 of the 32 games he's played.
