Suns Burn Blazers

----- The Suns had six-players finish in double-figures as Phoenix snapped a two-game slide with a dominating 120-90 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers Wednesday night at Footprint Center in Phoenix, Arizona.

No Chris Paul or Devin Booker for the Phoenix Suns, no problem.

Cam Johnson finished with a team-high 20 points and Deandre Ayton added 18 points and eight rebounds as the Phoenix Suns snapped a two-game losing streak in blowout fashion over the Portland Trail Blazers 120-90 Wednesday night at Footprint Center in Phoenix.

Johnson was 6-of-8 from the field, and Ayton 9-of-12. The Suns connected on 50% of their field goals including 14-of-36 from three-point range.

Mikal Bridges and Jae Crowder each added 15 points, with Bridges connecting on 6-of-9 from the field.

Brandon Williams led Portland (25-37) with a career-high 14 points, but the Blazers struggled with 19 turnovers and connected on a dismal 38.5% of their shots.

"My biggest concern is just trying to get some continuity with our new guys and the guys we had here," Portland coach Chauncey Billups said. "That is the biggest thing for me. The problem is it's tough to rush that. You have to get it when it comes and keep chipping away at it."

Up Next- The Trail Blazers will now travel to Minneapolis for a pair of games against the Timberwolves. Game one is Saturday evening scheduled to tip off at 5:00 PM.

Chad's Take- Blazers have lost last three-games by a combined 99 points. The franchise is laser-focused on the NBA Draft Lottery!
