Blazers’ Roy to miss 2 games with hurt hamstring

PORTLAND, Ore. — Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy will miss the team’s next two games after aggravating a right hamstring injury.

The two-time All-Star was originally injured during the third quarter of the Blazers’ 120-108 home victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Jan. 13.

Roy is averaging 23.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and five assists.

The Blazers visit the Celtics on Friday night before playing at Detroit on Saturday. Jerryd Bayless is expected to start for Portland in Boston.
