As the Multnomah County Board of Commissioners prepares to meet this week to discuss public financing for Moda Center renovations, the board’s influential leader threw her support behind efforts aimed at keeping the Trail Blazers in Portland.

The Portland Trail Blazers will be getting Scoot Henderson back sometime very soon.

It wasn’t a great start for the Phoenix Suns when they took on the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night, but a rare performance from one of their breakout players helped lead the team to a 130-125 comeback win.

After enduring a couple travel delays and passing a physical, Krejčí spoke to local reporters for the first time since arriving in Portland, expressing excitement about joining the Blazers.

The Blazers were down All-Star forward Deni Avdija (low back strain), Scoot Henderson (left hamstring tear) and Kris Murray (lumbar strain). Jrue Holiday (personal reasons) was upgraded from questionable to available. The Phoenix Suns are down, 72-67, at halftime after trailing by as many as 19 points.
