Thunder Defeats Trail Blazers 107-89, Extends Winning Streak to 16

The Oklahoma City Thunder secured a decisive 107-89 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers, marking their 16th consecutive win against Portland, extending over four seasons. This game saw the Thunder's bench players stepping up in the absence of their top seven players, with Aaron Wiggins scoring 30 points and Jaylin Williams achieving his first career triple-double. Despite a strong effort from the Trail Blazers, including 22 points from Scoot Henderson, they struggled to keep pace, particularly during a devastating second quarter where the Thunder outscored them 34-21. The game began slowly, with neither team hitting double digits until midway through the first quarter, but the Thunder gained momentum with a significant run that widened their lead. The Blazers, who had been performing well since the start of 2025, faced a challenge in overcoming an early deficit, ultimately falling short despite a third-quarter resurgence. This defeat complicates Portland's playoff aspirations as they continue to battle for a spot in the postseason.
