TRAIL BLAZERS 109, SUNS 86

Damian Lillard scored 19 points before sitting the final quarter, and Portland secured a playoff berth.

The Blazers have won four straight to edge closer to their first Northwest Division title since 2008-09.

LaMarcus Aldridge added 17 points and seven rebounds, and Portland led by as many as 31 points. The Blazers rested their starters in the fourth quarter after building a 92-65 lead.

The Suns have lost four straight, and while they are mathematically in the playoff picture, their chances are dwindling. Phoenix plays six of its last eight games on the road.

Gerald Green and rookie T.J. Warren each scored 13 points in the Suns' seventh loss by 20 or more points this season.
