They are one of only three teams, along with the Timberwolves and Raptors, that have yet to lose in 2026.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Can they continue their winning ways against a Houston team that was milliseconds away from completing their late-game comeback?

But after averaging 9.5 assists per game over his previous 10 outings, he managed only two on Wednesday night. Much of that can be attributed to the fact that all Blazers not named Avdija shot just 38.9% (23-59) for the game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">On the other side, Durant is missing his most reliable offensive teammate in Alperen Sengun. The Turkish big man scores 21.8 points per game and is one of the better passing centers in the game, averaging a team-high 6.5 assists.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">They have very different styles, but Avdija and Durant have both shown that they can consistently pile up the points. Friday night\u2019s game may come down to which star gets more help from his supporting cast.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\"><strong>Rebounds.<\/strong> The Rockets are the best rebounding team in the NBA and had a massive rebounding edge (57-38) on Wednesday night, including a 24-6 advantage on the offensive glass. Houston converted that edge into 23 second-chance points, compared to just nine for the Blazers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Portland\u2019s Donovan Clingan is fifth in the NBA in rebounds per game and has more offensive rebounds than any other player in the league, but was held to only seven rebounds (one offensive) Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Anticipating the challenge, Coach Tiago Splitter adjusted his rotation to play bigger lineups featuring both Robert Williams III and Yang Hansen when Clingan rested. Hansen played 16:31 on Wednesday, marking the most he has played in a competitive game all season. He logged more time only in a pair of blowout losses to Oklahoma City and Memphis (his lone start).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The Blazers got away with the poor rebounding, because outside of Durant, Houston did not shoot the ball well. As a team, they shot 37.4% for the game and made just 8-36 from beyond the three-point arc.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">If the Blazers can rebound better on Friday, they\u2019ll have a chance to sweep the two-game series.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">If the Rockets dominate the glass again, they\u2019ll probably leave town with a split. After all, they were a fraction of a second away from taking the first game on an offensive rebound.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"duet--article--article-body-component\">\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\"><strong>An All-Time Great.<\/strong> Durant will almost certainly pass Wilt Chamberlain for seventh all-time on the NBA\u2019s scoring list.
