Lillard's Franchise High In Scoring Pushes Magic Number To One With Win Versus Jazz

PORTLAND -- Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard was seen dancing in Portland’s locker room prior to Saturday night’s game versus the Jazz. He didn’t bother to stop once the game started. In fact, he even picked up the tempo.

The 6-3 point guard out of Weber State scored 26 points in the first quarter, tying his own franchise record for most points in a quarter, before finishing with a new franchise best in scoring with 59 points to lead the Trail Blazers to a 101-86 victory versus the Jazz in front of a sold-out crowd of 18,865 at the Moda Center.
