The shorthanded Portland Trail Blazers put forth a valiant effort in their 116-112 loss to the Brooklyn Nets, but far too often lacked the one stop or shot to put themselves over the top. Despite balanced scoring with six players in double-figures and 19 3-pointers, the Blazers again fell short of securing a win.
The loss dropped the Blazers to 25-18 and into the No. 6 spot in the Western Conference. Portland will now enter Thursday’s game nursing a two-game losing streak. If you missed Dave Deckard’s instant recap, here’s a look at that.
