The Portland Trail Blazers got a lead, blew it, got another lead at halftime, blew that, got down, came back, then fell behind for good as they lost to the Houston Rockets 123-107. Dalano Banton had a career-high 30 points, 8 boards, and 5 dimes including 4-10 from deep, and Anfernee Simons finished with 23-3-3 with three steals on 50% shooting,
Four things I noticed:
- Dalano Banton! What a game from the Canadian. Yes, he had a career game, but it wasn’t just what he did, it’s how he did it.
