Game Preview
The Portland Trail Blazers, who have dropped their last 7 matches, will be the team the Suns play on Tuesday in an attempt to make it 4. It’s an NBA in-season tournament contest as well. The Trail Blazers sit in the 4th spot in West Group A with a record of 1-2, while Phoenix is 1-1 and remains in 3rd place.
After Devin Booker was added back into the starting lineup, the Phoenix Suns surged ahead and captured 3 matches in a row. Booker’s ankle and calf problems have limited him to only 5 appearances so far. After making a comeback, he averaged 27.0 points as well as 9.3 assists during the Timberwolves’ victory and the subsequent two away wins against the Utah Jazz, including last Wednesday’s victory against visiting Minnesota. In the team’s victory against the Jazz on Friday, Booker recorded a career-high 15 assists in addition to 31 points. On Sunday, the team defeated the Timberwolves 140-137 in double overtime, and Booker returned with 26 points. In Sunday’s victory over Utah, fellow superstar Kevin Durant enjoyed a fantastic performance with 39 points, 8 rebounds, and a season-high 10 assists.
The visiting Oklahoma City Thunder destroyed the Trail Blazers 134-91 on Sunday night, leaving them nursing their bruises. After taking a 76-43 lead and shooting 71.8% from the floor during the initial half, including 11 of 15 3-pointers, Oklahoma City proceeded to thoroughly destroy Portland. This game was Portland’s 7th attempt to fall short of 100 points. With 102.9 points per match, the Trail Blazers are the lowest scoring team in the NBA. Both the absence of Anfernee Simons during the campaign’s opening and the Lillard trade have damaged the attacking approach. Malcolm Brogdon could end up missing 6 games in a row. The 3rd overall pick rookie Scoot Henderson is also out due to an ankle issue.
