GAME RECAP
IMPACT PLAYER
Nicolas Batum, Trail Blazers
It's a three-point tossup between Batum and Wes Mathews, but let's go with the guy to whom the Wolves extended a $45 million offer sheet last summer because they thought he had All-Star potential. He's playing like it, with a 26-point night on 5-for-6 three-point shooting Saturday.
BY THE NUMBERS
16 Portland's franchise record-tying three-pointers made.
10-3 Blazers' record against the Wolves in the past 13 games between the teams.
