Portland at Phoenix

Portland ran into a buzz saw at Los Angeles Tuesday night as the Clippers shot 51.8 percent and 16 of 30 from 3-point distance in beating the Trail Blazers 117-109. Damian Lillard scored 27 points, but CJ McCollum made only six of 15 from the field. The Blazers will look to bounce back tonight against the Suns, who have feasted on mostly weak teams while winning five in a row, including 109-104 at Sacramento on Monday night. Portland won the first meeting this season 134-105 as a 3-point favorite while shooting 54.2 percent. The Trail Blazers are inexplicably 26-9 ATS their past 35 Wednesday games, which is a good trend no matter the reason. Take the points with the Trail Blazers.
