With the playoffs no longer a possibility, the Trail Blazers have decided to focus on their youth over the final two-weeks of the regular season. Damian Lillard, Anfernee Simons, Jusuf Nurkic, and Jerami Grant were all scratched from the lineup on Friday afternoon and there is a good possibility they won't play again this season with the Blazers focused on improving lottery position.

The Trail Blazers lineup consisted of Ryan Arcidiacono, Shaedon Sharpe, Matisse Thybulle, Trendon Watford and Drew Eubanks.
