UPDATE: The Portland Trail Blazers have announced Donovan Clingan (left lower leg contusion) is OUT for tonight’s game, while Robert Williams III (left knee injury management) and Kris Murray (left hip contusion) are AVAILABLE.
The Portland Trail Blazers will take on one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference today as they travel to the Motor City to face the Detroit Pistons. Cade Cunningham is a handful, especially for a team without any discernable point guards. Will Portland be able to repeat
their feel-good win against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday or will they get a reality check?

This is your thread to talk about the action with fellow fans! Another will post at halftime. Here’s what we ask in our discussion threads:
- Stay on the topic of the game during official Game Day threads. We ask that the focus be a little tighter because everyone is gathering for the same reason, the game that unites us all.
- Don’t troll. Talk about basketball, not other commenters. Be smart and charitable—or at least honest and relatable—in the discussion. Friction happens, but treat this like your living room, not an anonymous message board. (Also avoid the classic internet trolling techniques: overt snark, comment repetition, etc.)
- Obviously no language that diminishes people based on race, gender, orientation, and the like is allowed. If you’re going to insult the L*kers, at least be creative.
- Blazer’s Edge is a non-profanity site. Yes, even though referees exist.
Thanks for being a part of the discussion. Enjoy the game and join us after for analysis and more!
