Shaedon Sharpe is Special...in His Starting Debut

Join host Danny Marang for a rapid reaction to Friday night’s game between the Portland Trail Blazers and the Houston Rockets that saw the Blazers improve to 5-1 on the season, winning 125-111.

The Blazers were lifted by 30 points, 7 assists and 5 rebounds from Anfernee Simons, 27 points, 15 rebounds and 3 blocks from Jusuf Nurkic and 14 points, 2 assists and tremendously highlight reel dunks from rookie Shaedon Sharpe in his starting debut slotting in for the injured Damian Lillard.

Stellar performances for Simons and Nurkic are not new, both have had better nights in their careers - both on the box score and in impact.
