The Portland Trail Blazers (18-10) currently own the longest active winning streak in the NBA at six games, and with four contests on the schedule this week, that streak is sure to be tested.
“We’ve just got to continue to be sharp and stay locked in,” said Damian Lillard. “Playing the kind of basketball we’re playing, I think the quality of basketball we’re playing will stand up against any team.”
But before heading back out on the road for three games, all against teams in the top half of the Western Conference standings, the Trail Blazers will host Brad Beal, Russell Westbrook and the Washington Wizards Saturday night at the Moda Center in the second and final game between the two teams this season.
