Even though LaMarcus Aldridge’s career with the Portland Trail Blazers didn’t end as smoothly as it could have, he was undoubtedly one of the greatest players in franchise history.
His impact was felt on this day eight years ago, when he passed Terry Porter for second place on the franchise’s all-time scoring list.
In a game against the Detroit Pistons, Aldridge nailed a corner three at the end of the first quarter to reach the milestone.
Aldridge would go on to score about 1200 more points with the Blazers in the 2014-15 campaign, finishing his Blazers tenure with 12562.
