Tip and bets
Both clubs had positive results in recent matches. Hosts are probably in a better form, so Portland surely have a chance to get a victory in front of their fans. But Blazers also have some problems. Four players are currently on injuried list: Jusuf Nurkic, Justise Winslow, Ibou Badji and Jerami Grant. However, Washington will also play without their key player, Kyle Kuzma.
