Clingan, Avdija Help Trail Blazers Avoid Disaster and Beat Pacers
Deni Avdija scored 32 points with 11 rebounds and Donovan Clingan added a career-high 28 points as Portland neared a Western Conference play-in spot.
- On Tuesday, the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Indiana Pacers 127-119, led by Avdija and Clingan, who scored 32 and 28 respectively.
- The Indiana Pacers' losing streak extended to 15 games amid injuries, with Pascal Siakam missing his sixth straight game, and coach Rick Carlisle has no timetable for his return.
- Using a 7-0 run, Portland seized control early, with Clingan providing 3 of 5 three-pointers and the team outrebounding Indiana 52-39 .
- The victory keeps the 10th-seeded Portland Trail Blazers close to a Western Conference play-in spot as they continue their road trip at Minnesota on Friday, while Indiana faces San Antonio Saturday.
- Despite never trailing, Portland had to withstand a late Indiana rally that cut it to 120-117 with 1:52 remaining, but missed key shots as Holiday and Avdija sealed it; both teams finished with 32 assists and 16 fouls on Portland and 24 on Indiana.
