Jerami Grant and Malcolm Brogdon led the charge with 27 points each as the Portland Trail Blazers (9-22) secured a 134-128 victory over the San Antonio Spurs (5-26) on Friday night, seizing the opportunity presented by the absence of rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama.
Brogdon showcased his all-around skills with 27 points and seven assists, while Jabari Walker delivered a career-high 25 points, adding to the Trail Blazers’ offensive firepower.
Rookie Scoot Henderson made a significant impact with 21 points, 11 assists, and seven rebounds.
Despite San Antonio’s Keldon Johnson putting up an impressive 27 points, the Spurs couldn’t overcome Portland’s sharpshooting from beyond the arc.
