Blazers celebrate Northwest Division title
The Blazers win the Division title for the first time this century
The Portland Trail Blazers returned to their locker room to find black T-shirts hanging in their stalls with bold red-and-white letters reading "Northwest Claimed."
Damian Lillard threw a couple into his traveling bag, but no Blazers put them on.
While they're thrilled to have some souvenirs from the franchise's first outright division title of the 21st century, the Blazers also are thinking ahead to bigger celebrations.
C.J. McCollum scored a career-high 27 points, Lillard added 20 and Portland celebrated its Northwest Division title with a 107-77 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night.
"It's an honor to be a part of this team and do so many things that this organization hasn't done for so long," Lillard said.
