Welcome to the first preseason game of the Portland Trail Blazers’ 2024-25 season! Hang out here and chat about today’s events, if possible.
Tip-off: 7:30 pm
Viewing options: Today’s game is reportedly available on NBA League Pass via the Clippers. It’s unclear if blackout rules apply, usually they’re ignored for preseason, but it’s not a guarantee. The game is not being broadcast locally in the Portland area
Out for Blazers: Shaedon Sharpe (shoulder), Deni Avdija (personal). Robert Williams III (hamstring), Anfernee Simons (ankle), Matisse Thybulle (knee)
Clippers roster updates: Mo Bamba (out; injury), Kawhi Leonard (out; injury), Norman Powell (gametime decision)
Our rules are pretty light for preseason gameday threads, so consider this mostly an open thread as well.
