Rob Gray-USA TODAY Sports Portland’s rookie got a chance to shine.

Damian Lillard had 30, Shaedon Sharpe 24, Trendon Watford had 21, and Jusuf Nurkic finished with 20. The Utah Jazz were a one man show for much of the...

Photo by Focus on Sport/ Jim Paxson played parts of nine seasons with the Portland Trail Blazers from 1979-88 and left the team as the all-time leading scorer in franchise history. The Portland Trail Blazers all-time scoring record has been a talking point throughout the season, as Damian Lillard surpassed Clyde Drexler for the milestone back in December. But on this day in 1987, that record was also broken when Jim Paxson surpassed Geoff Petrie on the franchise all-time scoring list. Petrie’s 9,732 points was the mark to beat and Paxson accomplished the feat in the...

After losing six straight games and eight of their last 10, the Blazers sit 3.5 games behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the final play-in spot with 11 games left in the season.

Jaime Valdez-USA TODAY Sports Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard is eyeing a championship, not silver linings, during the second half of his career.

Photo by Alika Jenner/ Poor 3-point shooting and a rare dud from Damian Lillard made matters difficult at the Moda Center Sunday night. The Portland Trail Blazers looked competent against the Los Angeles Clippers Sunday evening, but they didn’t look great, either. That doldrum space in the middle is where you’ll find this performance which saw Portland hang around, but never threaten their opponents much. At the final horn, Portland fell 117-102, extending its losing streak to six games Powered by a solid Jusuf Nurkic performance (23 points, 11 rebounds) and...
