The Blazers led 47-44 at the halftime break. The Kings shot 46.2% from the field while holding the Blazers to 39.5%, but Portland made 6 of 16 from 3-point range and 11 of 16 at the free throw line while Sacramento went 3 of 11 from beyond the arc and 5 of 8 at the foul line.

Still, a win is a win, and Sacramento will take them in any way they can get them. The Pistons will be looking to stave off disappointment — the kind that can come when you’re traveling on the road on the second night of a back-to-back.

Houston again led by double digits in the fourth quarter only to see Sacramento rally before taking the win late in overtime after a defensive miscue.
