Bench Delivers As Blazers Beat Cavs To Finish Trip 5-1

It’s always nice to get support from the bench. But in the last game of a long road trip, it’s more than nice, it’s almost a requirement.

Wednesday night in Cleveland, Portland’s bench came through with the requisite performance.

The Trail Blazers reserves put up 70 points as the Trail Blazers defeated the Cavaliers 141-105 in front of 4,148 fans Wednesday night at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse.

“Melo (Anthony) got it going in the first half, that was good to see. Ant (Simons) bounced back from a tough game in Atlanta, that was good to see,” said Trail Blazers head coach Terry Stotts.
