Brandon returns to lineup, Blazers win

Brandon returned to the lineup Saturday night against the Warriors, and helped the Blazers to a 113-100 victory in Oakland. Brandon scored 19 points and added 6 rebounds and 5 assists in 31 minutes of action. Brandon also turned in the Dunk of the Night on an inbounds play from Rudy Fernandez, showing everyone that his hamstring is doing alright.

“It felt pretty good,” Brandon said after the game about his hamstring. “The first quarter and the third quarter were the quarters that I had the most trouble because I was trying to warm it up, but the 4th quarter felt really good.”

Brandon didn’t incur and setbacks and is expected to start again when the Blazers travel to Chicago to face the Bulls on Monday night.
