PORTLAND, Ore. -- While Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum didnt have their usual offensive outburst against Miami, they both got baskets when it mattered.Lillard scored 19 points and McCollum had 17, including a pair of late baskets, to rally the Portland Trail Blazers to a 99-92 victory over the Heat on Saturday night.We just find a way, Lillard said. Youve got to gut one out like that. Find a way when your offense isnt there. I think that shows great character for our team and it shows growth.Hassan Whiteside had 28 points and 16 rebounds for the Heat, who missed out on their first three-game winning streak of the season.Whitesides follow shot put the Heat ahead 91-85, but McCollum made a 3-pointer with 2:57 left and Maurice Harkless free throws narrowed the gap to 91-90 with 2:26 remaining.Wayne Ellington hit a free throw for Miami, but McCollum converted a layup and Harkless banked in a jumper to give Portland a 94-92 lead.McCollum added a jumper with just under a minute left and Portland held on for the win, outscoring the Heat 14-1 in the final 2:57.Harkless also scored 17 points for Portland, which has won three of four.The Heat, at 7-13, have struggled at times following Dwyane Wades departure for the Chicago Bulls after 13 seasons in Miami.Youd like to go 3-0 but anytime you go positive on a road trip its a motivation, Whiteside said, noting the Heat went 2-1 on the three-game swing. We can build on this.Miami also is grappling with injuries. The team announced before the game that forward Luke Babbitt would not play because of a hip flexor. He joined forward Justise Winslow (wrist), guard Dion Waiters (groin) and Josh Richardson (ankle) on Miamis injured list and left the Heat with only 10 players available for the game.Ellington, appearing in his fourth game since returning from a deep thigh bruise, made his first start for the Heat. He finished with 12 points.Meyers Leonards alley-oop dunk from Evan Turner gave the Blazers a 73-68 lead late in the third quarter. The Heat were hurt with 20 seconds left when James Johnson was ejected with a second technical when he got upset about a non-call.Portlands recent resurgence comes with a new focus on defense.We locked in, guard Allen Crabbe said. Defense is really a priority for us now.TIP-INSHeat: The team ate on Friday night at 23Hoyt, the Portland restaurant that is partly owned by Miami coach Erik Spoelstra. Spoelstra grew up in Portland, and played for the Portland Pilots. ... The Heat had three technical fouls in the first half.Trail Blazers: Following Saturday nights game, Portland heads out on a five-game road trip. ... McCollum missed a foul shot in the third quarter, snapping a run of 30 consecutive made free throws.WINNING TRIPSpoelstra said the positive road trip wouldnt sink in until later.By the time we get on the plane Im sure well feel that way, but right now it stings, he said. You get up six and we really started to clamp down against a very dynamic, talented, well-schooled and experienced offensive team. They bring a lot at you but our guys were not backing off and making it as tough as possible.KEEPING IT UNDER 100It was just the third game this season that Portland has kept its opponent under 100 points -- demonstrating again the renewed commitment to defense. The Blazers are 3-0 in those games.UP NEXTHeat: Host the New York Knicks on Tuesday.Trail Blazers: Visit the Chicago Bulls on Monday. Stitched Cowboys Jerseys .

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins?will return to practice Wednesday after the team designated him as its one player to return from injured reserve this season.Watkins ran routes with receivers during individual drills before spending the final minute of practice open to reporters on an exercise bike, under supervision of the teams strength and conditioning staff.Right now, Im not feeling normal out there, Watkins said after practice. But I think two or three days, Ill start feeling back like myself and moving around. I probably ran 20 something plays today.

Now I learned like, Hey, man, you aint go to do it full speed. Go out there, run it pretty fast, but you dont got to be like gameday every rep. The plays I thought I had to run full speed, I did. And the plays that I didnt think I need to run full speed, I didnt.Watkins is eligible to play in Sundays game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, although coach Rex Ryan did not commit to Watkins being activated for the contest.I really dont know. I think well know a little more today, Ryan said before Wednesdays practice. Obviously were encouraged by the fact that he has been cleared to participate. It think thats a good sign. He feels good, so well see how it goes. Were gonna run him until his tongue is hanging outt.dddddddddddd Well be smart with him in how many plays we do. Well limit him today, but then well see how he progresses.Is there a chance that he could play? I hope so.Watkins deferred to trainers on whether he will play Sunday.I dont know. They havent told me, Watkins said. I got to go and watch the film and they got to see if Im babying the injury or not. I got to let them deal with that and see what Im going to do.The Bills have until Dec. 14 to add Watkins to their active roster or he will revert to injured reserve for the remainder of the season.Watkins did not rule out an additional surgery on his foot if he does not feel healthy in his return.If I feel like its not healed the right way, just go get surgery and come back the next year and get healed up, he said. But right now, Im feeling pretty good.Watkins last played in a Sept. 15 loss to the New York Jets. He has six catches for 63 yards in two games this season.The Bills are expected to be without leading receiver Robert Woods in Sundays game against Jacksonville. Woods sprained his knee in last Sundays win over Cincinnati.Running back LeSean McCoy participated in Wednesdays practice on a limited basis after undergoing surgery on his left thumb Sunday night and is expected to play against the Jaguars.I think well lean on him, and also well just keep watching him as he goes, Ryan said of McCoy. I think the big thing is making sure his thumb doesnt get infected. Thats the number one thing. If that stays clean, and theres no issue there, I think hes gonna be OK. ' ' '
