The Portland Trail Blazers’ preseason ends with a visit from a professional basketball team outside of the NBA. Maccabi Haifa, of Israel’s Ligat HaAl League, stop by for a Friday evening contest. After this, the Blazers have a nice stretch of rest before opening the season Wednesday night in Phoenix.
Tonight’s game is untelevised. The usual gameday thread rule is rescinded for the evening.
Injuries: I hope you like bench players! Nearly the whole rotation except Jusuf Nurkic is sitting out tonight’s game.
Tip-off: 7:00 pm
