The Portland Trail Blazers (21 - 6) defeated the San Antonio Spurs (17 - 10) in triple - overtime 129 - 119 on Friday. Portland has won four straight games. Damian Lillard led the way with a game - high 43 points in 53 minutes. LaMarcus Aldridge had a dominant double - double of 32 points and 16 rebounds in 52 minutes. With Robin Lopez out for the next 1 - 2 months with a broken right hand, the Trail Blazers appear as though they'll use a match - up based approach to determing who they start in Lopez's absence from game to game. They started Thomas Robinson in Wednesday's 104 - 97 win over the Milwaukee Bucks, but Joel Freeland was moved into the starting lineup Friday. Freeland put up eight points and six rebounds in 21 minutes. Thomas Robinson played 27 minutes off the bench but only provided two points and six rebounds. Nicolas Batum (wrist/knee) sat out the game. Allen Crabbe earned the start in Batum's absence but played just 13 mintues, while Dorell Wright put up 12 points and eight rebounds in 33 minutes off the bench. Portland will continue their road trip against the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday. San Antonio has dropped three straight games, with their last two games both going to triple - overtime. Tony Parker (hamstring) and Kawhi Leonard (hand) sat out, giving Cory Joseph and Kyle Anderson another game in the starting lineup. Tim Duncan scored a team - high 32 points and pulled down 10 rebounds in 43 minutes. Danny Green pitched in a double - double of 27 points and 10 rebounds in 44 minutes. The Spurs will look to turn around their fortunes when they go on the road to face the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday.
