The Trailblazers pulled out the win in New Orleans yesterday. The 125 – 117 final snapped the two game losing streak, and gave Portland their first win of this five game road trip. Jerami Grant was ejected in the 2nd quarter for fighting with a Magic player. Shaedon Sharpe was the game high scorer with 35, while Deni Avdija dumped in 32. The Blazers head to Texas to close out the road trip, starting in Houston Friday with an NBA Cup group stage matchup with the Rockets.

The Oregon men took down a scrappy South Dakota State squad 83 – 69 last night. Guard Jackson Shelstad scored 22 points for the Ducks in his second game back from a long-term injury. The Ducks get to 3 - 0
The OSU men’s team is also 3 – 0 although not without some help from a North Texas team that called a time-out in the final seconds when they didn’t have one. The Beavers made two technical foul free throws to win 66 – 64 to cap a comeback victory.
