"Sharpe had already missed the past six games because of a left calf strain. Follow-up imaging revealed the stress reaction. The four-to-six week time frame for Sharpe will allow for healing "before beginning a progressive return to full basketball activity," the team said in a statement."
"The 22-year-old Sharpe ranks second on the team with an average of 21.4 points this season. He also averages 4.4 rebounds and 2.6 assists. He injured his calf earlier this month in the first half of the Trail Blazers' 135-115 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies."

The 22-year-old guard had already missed six games due to the calf strain sustained during a game against Memphis. The team estimates a four-to-six week recovery period before Sharpe can begin progressive return to full basketball activity. Sharpe averages 21.4 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 2.6 assists this season in his fourth year with the franchise.
