Tonight's starting lineup has not yet been announced. It's possible that Suggs and/or Bamba could be in. Still TBD.

Thanks for putting this up.

Maybe I've missed it, but has anyone mentioned why Bamba lost his starting spot?

I dont think there was anything specific from team side He lost the spot after returning from protocols. He always had conditioning problems.

What's the betting line on Anthony getting more boards than Lopez?

[Knightro]

Future Magic max free agent signing Anfernee Simons running the point for Portland tonight.

[Howard Mass]

A little late but Let's Go Magic!

[penny_nz]

Cole getting a bit of a habit with slow starts, Franz showing his vision early again

[basketballRob]

Suggs shoots 33.8% from 3 in 14 games on the road. In 9 games at home he shoots 10.5% from 3.

Never seen such an awful shooting team shoot so many 3s

[RichCollab]

Let’s go Suggs!

[Knightro]

More Suggs, less every other guard on the roster please.

Never seen such an awful shooting team shoot so many 3s

That is why I want shooters/scorers from this draft. Smith and Mathurin at the top of my list. Makes me wonder if we could have the ammo to acquire another lottery pick somehow.

Bamba just can not catch a break

[ChosenSavior]

Love how much Suggs is attacking the rim lately.

[ChosenSavior]

And that block by Bamba was nice to see. Seems to be moving better in this game. We'll see though since he turned his ankle on that rebound.

[Knightro]

Suggs is slowly starting to figure out that "LeBron cradle the ball like a football" move on his drives to the basket.

Good to see.

Ross actually playing like a vet
