Fast start helps Magic sink Blazers

PORTLAND — It’s not the start
but the finish that matters, though
the Orlando Magic did both well.
Nikola Vucevic hit 13 of 18
shots, scored a season-high 30
points and grabbed 10 rebounds to
lead the Magic to a 115-109 victory
over the Portland Trail Blazers on
Friday night.
Elfrid Payton scored 19 points
and hit a key 3-pointer with 1:17
remaining that gave Orlando some
breathing room. D.J. Augustin
added 15 points, while Serge Ibaka
had 13 points and 10 rebounds as
the Magic snapped a four-game
losing streak.
“We needed that,” Vucevic said.
“We needed a game like that to see
that we can do it. We’ve had a lot
of games where we were playing
pretty well, and the (other) team
would make a run and we would
kind of fall apart.”
Orlando couldn’t have plotted
a better start to the game, as the
Magic hit their first nine shots,
while the Blazers missed their first
nine, on the way to an 18-1 lead five
minutes into the game.
But it came down to the final
eight minutes, with the score tied at
90. Vucevic and Payton combined
to score 15 of Orlando’s final 25
points to lead the finishing charge.
“I was very happy with how
we started the game but even more
proud of how we responded to their
runs,” Orlando coach Frank Vogel
said.

thought the Blazers, who had won
three of four and were coming off a
16-point win over Cleveland, lost a
long-range shooting contest.
“It was a perimeter game, and
they ended up making more shots
than we did,” Stott said.
As for the sluggish start, Stotts
said, “It happens. I thought we had
good shots. We had shots around
the basket. But the ball wasn’t
going in.”
Damian Lillard scored 34
points and C.J. McCollum had
26, extending his streak to eight
consecutive games with at least 25
points, the Trail Blazers’ longest in
nearly 30 years.
After Orlando’s fast start, Lillard
scored 15 first-quarter points as the
Blazers got as close as three points
during the first half. Orlando led
54-49 at halftime.
Two minutes into the third
quarter, Portland grabbed its first
lead at 57-56 on a drive by Lillard.
But Orlando bounced back, as
Ibaka hit back-to-back 3-pointers
to lead the Magic to an 82-78 lead
heading into the fourth quarter.
Lillard pulled Portland to
105-103, but Payton silenced the
Blazers crowd with a 3-pointer at
the end of the shot clock, putting
the Magic in front 108-103 with
1:17 left.
“You get up 18-1 against a team
like that and it’s not always a good

LOS ANGELES — Jordin
Canada had 18 points and 10
rebounds and No. 17 UCLA
beat No. 10 Oregon State
66-56 on Friday night to snap
the Beavers’ 12-game winning
streak.
Down five after three quar-
ters, UCLA (12-4, 3-2 Pac-12)
outscored the Beavers (15-2,
4-1) 25-10 in the final period.
Monique Billings added
17 points for the Bruins, and
Kennedy Burke had 10.
Gabriella Hanson led Oregon

Gulich had 12 points and 11
rebounds.
thing. We knew they were going
to come after us and they did, but
we were able to respond by getting
shops late in the game, and hitting
big shots,” Vogel said.
TIP-INS
Trail Blazers: Starting small
forward Maurice Harkless was a
late scratch due to a calf strain.
Allen Crabbe started in his place.
... Portland guard Tim Quarterman,
who on Thursday was assigned to
the Windy City Bulls of the NBA
Development League, is expected
to rejoin the Blazers sometime
during the team’s four-game road
trip next week.... McCollum’s
streak of leading Portland in scoring
ended at nine games.
OREGON 57, USC 53 —
At Berkeley, Calif., Sabrina
Ionescu scored 17 points,
including a layup in the final
minute to give Oregon its first
lead of the game, and the Ducks
rallied from a 16-point halftime
deficit to beat Southern Cali-
fornia 59-53 on Friday night.
Ionescu’s jumper from just
inside the arc rimmed out, but
she grabbed the rebound and
scored the putback to give
the Ducks a 55-53 lead. The
Trojans’ Alexis Lloyd then
missed a 3-pointer, and Ruthy
Hebard made a layup to stretch
Oregon’s lead to 57-53 with 30
seconds to play. Sadie Edwards
missed another 3-point shot for
the Trojans, and Ionescu made a
pair of free throws to seal it.
MCCOLLUM FINISHES FAST:
It took almost all of 48 minutes,
but McCollum scored at least 25
points for an eighth consecutive
game, the third-longest in Portland
history. Only Geoff Petrie (11
games) and Clyde Drexler (9) have
longer streak among Blazer players.
McCollum missed his first seven
shots, and had only five points at
halftime. But a 12-point fourth
quarter did the job and he scored
his final basket with 15 seconds
remaining.
