Toumani Camara accounted for 18 points (6-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, three assists and four three-pointers in Wednesday’s win over the Suns.

With the Trail Blazers starting a backcourt of Ja Morant and Damian Lillard, Camara’s defensive ability takes on added importance this season. He didn’t record any defensive stats against the Suns, but the former second-round pick had an excellent night offensively. Camara shot 66.7 percent from the field and made four of his seven three-point attempts.
