Bench Can’t Save Trail Blazers Against Donovan Mitchell, Cavs

The Portland Trail Blazers were almost saved by the magical powers of Duop Reath, Matisse Thybulle and the bench against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday...almost.

Well, less almost and more momentarily. After some heroic exploits in the third quarter from the “other other guys” on a team powered by “other guys” at the moment, the Cavs pulled away in the fourth quarter to make it not much of a game in the end. The final from the Moda Center had the Cavs winners: 109-95.

The Trail Blazers played their new scrappy brand of basketball once again, even on the second night of a back-to-back.
