Jaden Hardy scored a season-high 25 points off the bench, P.J. Washington had 23 points and 14 rebounds and the Dallas Mavericks used a late 16-0 run to beat the Portland Trail Blazers 117-111.

The Portland Trail Blazers could very well end their five-game road trip with a winning record. The Blazers, 5-15 on the road this season and 2-2 on their current trip, play Thursday night at the Dallas Mavericks after dominating the New Orleans Pelicans 119-100 on Wednesday.

The Blazers have won two of their last three including a 119-100 win last night in New Orleans against the Pelicans. Deni Avdija led Portland with 26 points. The Mavericks smacked the Lakers 118-97 in Dallas Tuesday night. No Luka. No Kyrie. No Problem. Quentin Grimes has 23 off the bench for the Mavs.
