A young Portland Trail Blazers guard has broken his foot and will be on the shelf indefinitely, joining the club's unfortunately growing list of wounded backcourt pieces.

The Trail Blazers note that Wesley does not yet have a definitive return timeline.

Wesley joins fellow ailing Trail Blazers guards Scoot Henderson and Damian Lillard on the shelf for the Trail Blazers. Lillard, recovering from an Achilles tear suffered during the playoffs last spring, is out for the season. Henderson should be back sooner.

The former No. 3 draft pick out of the G League Ignite tore his left hamstring at the start of October, and was expected to miss four-to-eight weeks of activity — meaning there's a possibility he could return at some point in November.

Next up for Portland is a tilt against the Los Angeles Lakers, slated for Monday. It's safe to say that none of these guards will be back in time for that.

Still, the Trail Blazers will enjoy a distinct rest edge over Los Angeles. The Lakers (who are currently playing the Miami Heat at Crypto.com Arena in LA) will be playing the second night of a back-to-back slate of games, while Portland hasn't suited up since the Denver upset on Friday.

Wesley's Tenure in Portland So Far

After spending his first three seasons on the San Antonio Spurs, Wesley joined Portland on a one-year, $2.4 million veteran's minimum deal this summer.

In his six games for the 4-2 Trail Blazers this year, the 6-foot-6 Oregon product has been averaging 6.0 points on 41.2 percent field goal shooting and 60 percent free throw shooting, along with 3.2 assists, 2.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals a night.

Now, he'll likely miss several months of action as Portland strives to make its first playoff appearance since 2021. Beyond Wesley, the Trail Blazers have made several roster additions this summer, bringing in 35-year-old former All-Star guards Jrue Holiday and Lillard (although, again, Lillard is out for the season) and rookie center Yang Hansen. Portland also flipped Anfernee Simons in its trade for Holiday, and bought out former starting five Deandre Ayton.
