Here’s the Oregonian reporting on the Portland Trail Blazers bench:

Allen Crabbe is emerging as the Blazers’ best and most consistent scoring threat off the bench.
Over the last five games, the backup shooting guard/small forward has reached double figures in scoring four times and is averaging 11.0 points. During the run, he’s shooting 59.5 percent from the field, including 45.5 percent from three-point range, while adding 2.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.
Twice, Crabbe has been perfect from the field, logging a 7-for-7 outing against the Detroit Pistons and a 5-for-5 performance in the loss to the Grizzlies.
Crabbe said he not only feels more confident, but also can see a more confident player when he watches himself on video.
