STATS LLC -- The Portland Trail Blazers' eight-game winning streak began Feb. 14, when the Golden State Warriors came for a pre-All-Star break visit to Moda Center.
The Trail Blazers came away with a 123-117 victory, with Damian Lillard bombing in 44 points to lead the way.
They haven't lost since, and now Portland (39-26) and Golden State (51-14) collide again Friday night at Moda Center. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.
The Warriors will be without Stephen Curry, who suffered an ankle injury in Thursday's 110-107 victory over San Antonio at Oracle Arena -- Golden State's seventh straight win.
