\nThe Blazers are 10-6 with Damian Lillard having missed five games and left two early because of calf injuries. They are 7-2 when he starts and finishes a game. – 2:01 AM<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nDamian Lillard missed four games following his first calf injury. He is hopeful that he won’t miss as many games this time around but does anticipate missing some time.

\nDamian Lillard says this calf injury isn\u2019t as bad as the first one. Seemed to think he\u2019ll miss a couple games on the road trip but doesn\u2019t expect it to be an extended thing. Had an MRI tonight but no results yet. – 1:23 AM<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nTough road trip coming up. Milwaukee, Cleveland, Brooklyn and New York. They’re 10-6 now, could easily come home at .500 especially if Dame misses time. – 12:38 AM<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nJosh Hart almost led the Trail Blazers to the comeback win after Dame left w\/ injury. Offensive rebounds, steals, smart passing, coast-to-coasts were all witnessed. He was a machine, but Jordan Clarkson was huge in the clutch.
\nUtah\/Portland are fun & legit. Get on board already! – 12:34 AM<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nHALFTIME: Jazz 58, Blazers 51. Utah outscores Portland 38-28 in 2Q. Markkanen and Beasley have 15p each for the Jazz. Dame is one of three Blazers with 10 points, though the bulk of his have come on an 8-9 FT performance; he’s 1-9 FGs, 0-8 on 3s. – 11:11 PM<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nCarson Palmer wasn’t considered a favorite to win the Heisman Trophy until the last two games of the season when No. 7 USC beat a Top 25 UCLA team at the Rose Bowl and a Top 25 Notre Dame team at the Coliseum to make USC a Top 5 team.
