After Action Report
The Trail Blazers outlasted the Mavericks 103-93. Trail Blazers torched the Mavericks on the offensive end. Mavericks' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Mavericks answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Trail Blazers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Mavericks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
