McCollum rounded out the backcourt with 16 points , four assists and two rebounds . Turnovers were an issue for the guard rotation throughout the effort , and the Grizzlies slow , physical game plan took advantage of the 22 mistakes Portland committed . Lillard was responsible for seven of the turnovers , but the Blazers are aware of the hindering foot injury and it should not be long before he returns to his elite level of play . Al-Farouq Aminu converted a double - double to lead the frontcourt , adding 15 points and 14 rebounds . Aminu 's career high 11 points per game and 7 rebounds per game are proving to be a strong signing for Portland . The Trail Blazers will host the Los Angeles Clippers ( 22 - 13 ) on Wednesday . Memphis is coming off a tough overtime loss to the Utah Jazz on Saturday , where point guard Mike Conley ( back ) played 41 minutes on a sore back .
