13. Portland Trail BlazersDamian Lillard’s 40-point game against the Nuggets was spoiled by Murray’s last-second three. He turned in another vintage outing a few nights later, which, combined with 31 from Anfernee Simons, was enough to get past the Timberwolves.

James and Davis combined for 69 points Sunday to beat the Pistons to conclude the six-game trip.
