Portland 88, at Minnesota 83: Brandon Roy, originally drafted by the Timberwolves, scored 26 points, including a driving layup and a fastbreak dunk that put away the game for the Trail Blazers. Greg Oden added 13 points, eight rebounds and three blocks in 23 minutes for Portland as he works his way back from a sprained foot that kept him out for six games.

at Chicago 104, Indiana 91: Derrick Rose scored 23 points, 12 in the third quarter, and had his name mentioned with Michael Jordan.

Golden State 121, at Clippers 103: Baron Davis had 25 points and 11 assists against his former team and it wasn’t nearly enough.
