Third-year Blazers guard Allen Crabbe, who was selected 63rd overall in the 2013 draft, scored a team-high 24 points on 9-of-13 field goal shooting and 3-of-4 from 3-point range.

Tim Frazier, the 2014 NBA Development League MVP and Rookie of the Year, added 14 points on 6-of-11 shooting and five rebounds for Portland. The formerly undrafted guard out of Penn State had also had a game-high eight assists and grabbed five rebounds. (Satnam Singh Recommended for Arjuna Award)
