They will square off against the Sacramento Kings at 3:30 p.m. ET on Sunday at Golden 1 Center. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Last Friday, the Trail Blazers came up short against the Rockets and fell 116-107. Portland has struggled against Houston recently, as their contest on Friday was their third consecutive lost matchup.
The Trail Blazers' defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Scoot Henderson, who went 6 for 7 from beyond the arc en route to 30 points and 7 assists, and Dalano Banton, who dropped a double-double on 28 points and ten rebounds.
Meanwhile, the Kings' recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Friday after their third straight loss. They were just a bucket shy of victory and fell 108-107 to the Suns. The loss hurts even more since Sacramento was up 70-54 with 7:49 left in the third.
Despite their defeat, the Kings saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Domantas Sabonis, who almost dropped a triple-double on 25 points, 12 rebounds, and nine assists, was perhaps the best of all. Sabonis is on a roll when it comes to rebounds, as he's now pulled down ten or more in the last 38 games he's played.
Portland's loss dropped their record down to 21-60. As for Sacramento, their defeat dropped their record down to 45-36.
The Trail Blazers must know they're fighting an uphill battle given the 16.5-point spread they're up against. This contest will be their 26th straight as the underdogs (so far over this stretch they are 15-10 against the spread).
The Trail Blazers strolled past the Kings when the teams last played back in December of 2023 by a score of 130-113. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Trail Blazers since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
