The Portland Trail Blazers started their six-game road trip in style on Wednesday night, defeating the San Antonio Spurs 128-112 at the AT&T Center for their third consecutive victory—and fifth in their last six games.
The Blazers turned in a scorching first half, scoring a season-high 73 points, and survived a sloppy third quarter to coast to the finish line. Damian Lillard turned in another spectacular performance to lead the charge with 37 points, while Keldon Johnson led the Spurs with 25.

Both teams started the game cold from the field, but Portland was able to convert a pair of offensive rebounds into second chance points to gain some early separation.
