The Portland Trail Blazers are shaking their heads after a 121-118 loss to the Sacramento Kings at the Golden 1 Center on Wednesday night.
Despite playing without Scoot Henderson, Anfernee Simons, Malcolm Brogdon and Robert Williams III, the Blazers gave the playoff-contending Kings a run for their money.
The Blazers and Kings traded the lead five times during the final frame, but Portland pulled away with less than a minute to go with a four-point lead.
“It just happens in a season there’s some games that you win that you probably shouldn’t have won and some games that you lose that you probably should have won and this is one of those games that we feel like we should have won,” Billups said.
