In a battle of the point guards, the Golden State Warriors host the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday night at the Chase Center. Fans can expect an enthralling encounter in which Steph Curry put up 62 points the last time the two sides met at the start of January. Portland Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard has matched the Warriors' legend so far this season and arguably should've been voted a starter alongside him in the All-Star game. Lillard has led a weakened Trail Blazers roster up to fifth in the West even without regular backcourt partner CJ McCollum.With only two losses behind them in the West, the Golden State Warriors have been performing above expectations this season. They have a top-5 defense led by Draymond Green, whose importance was brought starkly into prominence on Monday night after the Lakers blew out Steve Kerr's side.At what time will the Golden State Warriors vs Portland Trail Blazers matchup start?USA: Wednesday, 3rd March 2021, 10:00 PM (Eastern Time)India: Thursday, 4th March 2021, 8:30 AM (Indian Standard Time)Where and how to watch the Golden State Warriors vs Portland Trail Blazers?Fans in America can catch the game locally on NBC Sports Northwest and NBC Sports Bay Area.
