The Portland Trail Blazers’ week started with a startling Tornado evacuation in Atlanta. In the early Monday hours, a tornado touched down west of downtown Atlanta, forcing the Trail Blazers to head for the approved shelter in their current hotel.
The Blazers’ social media account shared a handful of pictures from the evacuation shortly after the events unfolded.

On this week’s episode of the Blazer’s Edge podcast, host Danny Marang answers listener questions following the the Portland Trail Blazers’ loss to the short-handed Charlotte Hornets. Marang touches on the overall “vibe” of the team right now, potential internal struggles, how hot is Coach Terry Stotts’ seat, and how the Blazers can retain Norman Powell in the offseason. Of course, it wouldn’t be a complete Marang-infused podcast without a little CJ McCollum trade talk.
