After Action Report
The Trail Blazers squeaked past the Jazz 101-100. The Trail Blazers won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Fresh off a statement win, the Trail Blazers stayed locked in; shots just aren't falling for the Jazz lately. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

- Trail Blazers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
