Lillard scores 24, Blazers hold off NBA-best Raptors 128-122
PORTLAND, Ore. — A struggling Trail Blazers bench finally got rolling Friday night, setting a season high for points in a confidence-boosting win over the NBA-leading Toronto Raptors.
Zach Collins scored 16 points and Seth Curry added a season-best 13, including three key 3-pointers early in the fourth quarter, as Portland held off the league’s top team for a 128-122 victory.
Curry and Collins both played pivotal roles off a Blazers bench that outscored Toronto’s reserves 58-26.
“It was good to see everybody get back into a rhythm, and just finally have fun for once,” Collins said. “You know, it’s been a while since we’ve gone out there and just played the game and had fun.”
