The Portland Trail Blazers are rolling, having won their first three games to start the 2022-23 NBA campaign. The last time the Blazers won three in a row to begin a season, Damian Lillard was a senior at Weber State University in 2011-2012.
Portland’s next challenge will be getting through the Denver Nuggets, led by reigning MVP Nikola Jokic.
On Sunday afternoon, Rip City downed the Los Angeles Lakers in a 106-104 nail biter. Damian Lillard was the catalyst yet again, with another 41 point game on 60 percent shooting from the field.
