The Trail Blazers will play at least one more game without their backup point guard.
Coach Terry Stotts said Ronnie Price will not play tonight when the Blazers visit the Oklahoma City Thunder. Price, who is still recovering from the high right ankle sprain he suffered during an Oct. 12 exhibition game in Phoenix, is listed day-to-day.
Second-year guard Nolan Smith, who had two points and two assists in the Blazers’ season-opening win over the Los Angeles Lakers, again will take Price’s spot in the Blazers’ rotation.
