The Portland Trail Blazers defeated the visiting Toronto Raptors in OT, 128-118, at Moda Center on Saturday.

Toronto scored the first basket of this game but that was the only lead they had. Strangely, it still took an overtime session to determine a winner, despite there being just two ties in this game. Portland took care of business in the extra session, outscoring Toronto in the overtime, 15-5. A 33-16 first quarter allowed them to maintain the lead for all but that opening shot but Toronto got the game into the extra frame behind a 67-50 second half. Portland won the turnover battle, 20-14, while outscoring the Raptors in the paint, 54-44.

The Raptors (23-41) were led by Immanuel Quickley, collecting 29 points, three rebounds and seven assists. Gary Trent totaled 23 points, five rebounds, three assists and two steals. Kelly Olynyk compiled 15 points, six rebounds, eight assists, two steals and two blocks. Chris Boucher led the bench with 16 points, eight rebounds, two assists and three blocks.

The Trail Blazers (18-45) were led by Deandre Ayton, accruing 30 points, 19 rebounds and two steals. Dalano Banton amassed 25 points, seven rebounds and four assists. Anfernee Simons tallied 23 points, four rebounds and seven assists, while Toumani Camara had 15 points, nine rebounds and four assists. Matisse Thybulle and Scoot Henderson led the bench with 13 points apiece.
