What the Trail Blazers Should’ve Done at the NBA Trade Deadline
The 2026 NBA Trade Deadline passed last week with barely a blip from the Portland Trail Blazers. They picked up guard Vit Krejci from the Atlanta Hawks before the big day, then remained quiet during the proceedings. Overall, we were fine with their incremental approach, but a few Blazer’s Edge Readers were less so, particularly […]

Blazers Look to Take Advantage of Tumultuous Timberwolves
Deni Avdija and the Portland Trail Blazers look to extend the team’s three-game winning streak in a matchup with Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves today. On paper Minnesota looks like the superior squad, but the two teams appear to be on opposite trajectories. Minnesota sits in sixth place in the Western Conference with a 33-22 […]
Blazers Guard Shaedon Sharpe Out with Calf Strain
The Portland Trail Blazers have released their injury report for Wednesday’s game versus the Minnesota Timberwolves.

This week saw the debut of Scoot Henderson and Deni Avdija’s return from injury, but it was Toumani Camara who […]
Making Sense of the Trail Blazers’ Moda Center Mess
The Portland Trail Blazers are on a three-game winning streak, coming off one of their most dominant games of the season against the Philadelphia 76ers last night. The team seems well on their way to the 2026 NBA Play-In Tournament. Maybe, if healthy and a little bit lucky, they’ll get to the playoffs. For all […]
A Healthy Deni Avdija Brings Night-and-Day Difference to Blazers
Isn’t life so much easier for the Portland Trail Blazers when a healthy Deni Avdija suits up?

Team Effort Helps Blazers 86 the 76ers
The Portland Trail Blazers blew out the Philadelphia 76ers 135-118 in NBA action tonight for their third victory in a row. A career night from forward Toumani Camara in points (30) and threes (8 for 10) were more than enough to compensate for Tyrese Maxey’s 30-point effort for the 76ers, but he wasn’t alone. The […]
Portland Dominates the Second Half, Puts Away the 76ers
The Portland Trail Blazers defeated the Philadelphia 76ers Monday night, 135-118. While the result and final score was impressive, perhaps the most exciting development for Blazers fans was seeing nearly a full 48 minutes of high-flying, fast-action basketball from the guys from Rip City. The Blazers punished every half-hearted rebound, lazy pass, and slow retreat […]

Lillard will be competing for what would be a record-tying third 3-point contest win after taking the crown in 2023 and […]
Blazers Use Fourth-Quarter Breakthrough to Top Grizzlies
In many ways, it didn’t seem like Saturday would be the Portland Trail Blazers’ night against the Memphis Grizzlies. That feeling started pregame, as long injury reports — and the fact it was the second meeting between the teams in 48 hours — brought to the matchup the wonky energy usually reserved for the tanktastic […]
Donovan Clingan Dominates Memphis in Blazers Win
The Portland Trail Blazers made it two in a row with another win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night, this one with a final score of 122-115.
