Believe it or not, after tonight the Blazers control their destiny for the Emirates NBA Cup™️ despite their negative point differential. Them and Denver are both 2-1 but Blazers have head-to-head tiebreaker. If they beat San Antonio Wednesday, they advance.

Whatever happened with Donovan Clingan's leg didn't look good. Blazers up 35-28 on the Warriors here in San Francisco at the end of the first but obviously have bigger concerns. Last thing they need right now is another injury to a starter.

Deni Avdija on end of 4th Q: "I take responsibility about that last shot. I could have done better. It's on me. I wasted the clock too much and went for that three. I should have either drove a little bit or gotten closer. But I'm learning from it. I should have been smarter."

This is a bad loss. Had plenty of opportunities to pull away and either couldn't make shots or committed bad fouls. Offense is brutal without Jrue.
