PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- Damian Lillard had 17 points and nine assists before sitting out the fourth quarter and the Portland Trail Blazers snapped a four-game losing streak with a 114-95 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Tuesday night.
Russell Westbrook was off his league-leading average of 31.1 points a game with 20 for the Thunder, who have lost two of their last three after a six-game winning streak.
Mason Plumlee added 18 points for the Blazers, who led by 26 points in Portland's first game back after a 1-4 road trip. Six Portland players finished in double figures in the second of a back-to-back.
Portland was coming off a 121-120 loss at the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night to extend the season's longest losing streak.
The Thunder were without Victor Oladipo because of a right wrist sprain, forcing Oklahoma City's first starting lineup change of the season. Jerami Grant, acquired by the Thunder in a trade with Philadelphia at the start of the season, got his first start for Oklahoma City and finished with 11 points.
The Blazers didn't have Al-Farouq Aminu, who has a sore back, instead starting Noah Vonleh. But Vonleh got into foul trouble, collecting three in the first quarter.
Westbrook's 3-pointer put the Thunder up 25-16 early, but Portland came back to take a 32-31 lead on Allen Crabbe's layup before the end of the first quarter. CJ McCollum made a three-quarter court shot, but he didn't beat the buzzer.
Portland stretched the lead to 50-36 after Evan Turner's floater and free throw. The two sides exchanged words midway through the second quarter when Lillard reached down to pick up the ball at a time out and Westbrook kicked it.
Lillard closed out the half with a left-handed layup to make it 68-52. Plumlee's basket stretched Portland's lead to 90-65 late in the third quarter.
