The Trail Blazers host the Los Angeles Lakers on October 18th. After a turbulent offseason, there are a few question marks as to the starting lineup for Portland. Here are a few options.
Most Likely
This lineup was the most common starting lineup last season. This group accounted for 80.1 points per game, the highest average of any five players on the roster. The Big 3 are featured prominently in this lineup, with Nurkic playing the role of rim protector while Lillard and CJ run one of the league’s highest flying backcourts. This is by far the most likely starting lineup to start the season.
