The Portland Trail Blazers and Orlando Magic played a feisty contest on Tuesday night, pouring energy into play that was less than perfect, but entertaining nonetheless. The Blazers featured a balanced attack, with six players in double-figures, led by Anfernee Simons with 19 points on 7-17 shooting and Jusuf Nurkic with 14 points and 12 rebounds. Given the roster make-up after their trades this week, it’s safe to say that the other four are players you’d never expect to hear in the same sentence as “double figures”, which is a credit to Portland’s approach and teamwork.
