With much fanfare being made about the absurd statistical starts of many superstars , Damian Lillard continued to separate himself from the pack on Friday night . Through six games , Lillard is averaging just over 34 points on over 52 percent shooting . Friday 's 42 - point outing marked his highest scoring night of the season , though that was a high bar for Lillard to hop ; in six games , he has scored no lower than 27 and has eclipsed 35 points three times . For Dallas , meanwhile , offseason addition Harrison Barnes has seen his role shift with the Mavericks . After playing in a loaded Golden State offense , Barnes has been able to see the ball in his hands plenty in Dallas . With 17 points on Friday , Barnes remains Dallas 's top scorer , having reached double digits in all five games thus far . The Portland Trail Blazers defeated the host Dallas Mavericks on Friday , 105 - 95 , behind 42 points from point guard Damian Lillard . It was a tight game until the fourth quarter , as Portland ( 3 - 3 ) held just a three - point lead at the end of the third . It was Lillard time the whole way , however , as the point guard delivered his highest - scoring performance of the season thus far . Lillard 's 42 - point eruption on 12 - of - 18 shooting helped make up for cooler nights from backcourt partner C.J . McCollum , who scored just nine points , and the Portland bench , who combined for just 14 . The team played a perimeter - focused game , scoring 36 points on three - point shots , including 15 from Lillard . Dallas ( 0 - 5 ) , meanwhile , saw yet another loss come in Friday 's matchup . The team has yet to pick up a win in the 2016 - 17 season , and has seen major shooting struggles thus far . These struggles continued against Portland , as the team shot just 41 percent from the field . Veteran team leader Dirk Nowitzki , who was recently sidelined due to an illness , came back to play just 16 minutes on Friday . Nowitzki scored only five points on 2 - of - 6 shooting . Shooting guard Wesley Matthews , meanwhile , was seemingly invisible on the floor , shooting just 1 - of - 6 and recording no rebounds and one assist in 29 minutes of play . Portland will face off against Memphis on Sunday , while Dallas will hope to finally pick up a win as they host Milwaukee .
