The Portland Trail Blazers were already one of the hottest three-point shooting teams through two games of summer league play, but in their final game of preliminary play Tuesday afternoon, they did something Las Vegas is know for: They got even hotter.
In their third game in four days, the Trail Blazers shot better than 50 percent from behind the arc on the way to defeating the San Antonio Spurs 95-89 to improve to 3-0 at the 2018 Las Vegas Summer League.
“We’ve been going a really good job defensively and guys get out and run,” said assistant coach Jim Moran, who is handling head coaching duties for the Trail Blazers at summer league.
