In the second of a road back-to-back, the Portland Trail Blazers face the Washington Wizards. The game is at 4:00 p.m. PT and can be viewed locally on NBCSNW or through Rip City Radio 620. It marks the first matchup between the teams this year.
Portland enters Saturday off a close win in Brooklyn. After painfully dropping the first matchup of the season, the Blazers got their revenge against Allen Crabbe and company.
A win is a win, but taking the Nets down to the final shot when they’re missing D’Angelo Russell and Jeremy Lin isn’t a good sign.
