    Damian Lillard's 26 games of 30+ points this season tie the franchise record (Clyde Drexler, 1987-88/Kiki Vandeweghe, 1986-87).

    Imagine being a lottery pick, in your 5th year, only center on the team, and you're playing with the mop up squad.

    The Trail Blazers have won a season-high six straight games and are back to .500 for the first time since holding a 12-12 record on Dec. 9.

    During Portland's season-best six game winning streak, the Trail Blazers have outscored opponents by 12.5 points per game (114.7-102.2).
