The Portland Trail Blazers moved to 2-1 in NBA Cup play after a convincing 115-106 victory over the Sacramento Kings. Every Blazers starter scored in double figures, while the Kings looked discombobulated, Keegan Murray outscored his brother Kris by 1 point, with Kris scoring only 2 points. The game wasn’t as close as the final score indicates. Let’s dig in.
Blazer of the Game: Deandre Ayton. Tough call tonight, as the entire starting lineup deserved the honor. Ayton held down the paint, a key to tonight’s win. He almost had a double-double with 26 points and 9 rebounds.
