DET vs POR Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:

Portland Trail Blazers can move one step closer to the playoffs when they host Detroit Pistons in a regular season NBA match at Moda Center, in Portland, Oregon, United States, on Sunday morning (IST).

Damian Lillard scored a game-high 33 points and added another 12 assists to his incredible assist as Portland Trail Blazers continued their good run with a 126-118 win over Dallas Mavericks.

Lillard was quite vocal about the importance of the win against teams like Dallas who are struggling for form and consistency all season.

“As long as we have that right attitude and we do things the right way, I think we’ll keep getting this result when we play against teams we should beat,” Lillard said.

Jusuf Nurkic – With CJ McCollum out with a knee injury, somebody has to take on his role in the team. Though Jusuf Nurkic plays as a Center, the 24-year-old has a good amount of points in him.

Detroit Pistons:
Blake Griffin – Pistons have their own superstar who is right up there with the best this season. The 30-year-old former Los Angeles Clippers star is racking up 24.6 points per game this season.

Andre Drummond – The player with an all-round ability on the court, Andre Drummond can do almost anything on a Basketball court. from blocks, steals to rebounds and assists, the 25-year-old is an indispensable part on Detroit Pistons’ roster.

DET vs POR Dream11 TEAM NEWS:
Portland Trail Blazers:
Injured – Shooting guard CJ McCollum suffered an ankle injury against San Antonio Spurs this week, and missed the last two games. But the injury is not serious enough to keep Blazers’ 2nd best player out of action for a longer period as, according to the reports, the 28-year-old went through some very light ballhandling and passing work during Saturday’s practice. Though he will be missing this match.
Questionable – None at the moment.
Suspended – None.
