The Portland Trail Blazers will meet the Phoenix Suns in the first match of their 2026-27 NBA season on Tuesday night. The Blazers beat the Suns in the Play-in last season, and our prediction is that they will get the new season started with a victory in this match.
The Portland Trail Blazers ended last season with a decent 42-40 record to end their Playoff drought. They are now set to start life under the guidance of Micah Nori as their head coach.
The Blazers got through the Play-In tournament but were ousted 4-1 in the first round of the Playoffs by the San Antonio Spurs. They went 3-1 in the pre-season, losing only to the Warriors.
Portland’s new-look roster has generated plenty of excitement, with the arrivals of Ja Morant, Jeremy Sochan and Vit Krejci at the expense of Jerami Grant and Kris Murray to the Grizzlies.
Meanwhile, after picking up 45 wins and making the Playoffs - their fifth Playoff appearance in the past six seasons - the Phoenix Suns are set to enter their campaign under Jordan Ott.
The Suns had a fairly underwhelming pre-season, losing four of their five games. Devin Booker was their best player last season, averaging 26.1 points and 6.0 assists per game.
Collin Gillespie and Mark Williams were signed to contract extensions, while new faces joining the Suns’ roster include Miles Bridges, Luke Kennard and Pat Spencer.

Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Phoenix Suns Prediction
The Trail Blazers have a couple of key absences to start the season in Shaedon Sharpe and Branden Carlson, while Deni Avdija is a doubt. However, there is plenty of excitement around the franchise due to the partnership of Ja Morant and Damian Lillard.
Mark Williams is out, and Luke Kennard is questionable for the Suns. Phoenix have lost three of their last five to this opponent, and we feel they will suffer another loss in this one. Our Portland Trail Blazers vs Phoenix Suns prediction is Portland Trail Blazers -2.5.
