How the Portland Trail Blazers enter the game
Micah Nori is the Portland head coach, the third in less than 12 months after Chauncey Billups and Tiago Splitter, according to an NBA preview. A pre-season forecast projects Ja Morant, Damian Lillard, Deni Avdija, Toumani Camara and Donovan Clingan as starters. Morant spent seven seasons in Memphis before being traded to Portland in exchange for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray, and this is his first game against the franchise that traded him.
Shaedon Sharpe is out with a meniscus injury. Scoot Henderson, listed as doubtful with an ankle problem, played minutes in the win over the Lakers and is expected to be available, but his status may change before the game. Portland finished 2025-26 with a 42-40 record, seventh in the West.
