Damian Lillard's career high and record quarter not enough for Blazers

The record book will show that Sacramento defeated Portland 123-119 at Sleep Train Arena on Tuesday, but anyone who saw the game won't forget what Damian Lillard pulled off – or almost pulled off.

The Blazers point guard scored a career-high 41 points, including 26 in the fourth quarter, breaking Portland's franchise record for most points in any quarter.

Rudy Gay scored a season-high 32 point for the Kings, including 13 in the fourth quarter. DeMarcus Cousins had 35 points, also a season high, and 13 rebounds in his third consecutive dominant effort against Portland.
