The Portland Trail Blazers<\/a> are encouraging fans to buy tickets so that local kids in the Portland area can attend a game.<\/p>\n

The NBA team hosts its charity event, Blazers\u2019 Edge Night, every year. \u201cEach year this life-changing event helps teachers, students, principals, coaches, and counselors provide an amazing experience for people who otherwise couldn\u2019t ever see a game in real life,\u201d a press release from the Trail Blazers said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The team added that a \u201cmajority\u201d of the tickets go to kids seeing their \u201cvery first Blazers game.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Trail Blazers are now urging fans to purchase the remaining 1,000 un-donated tickets for the team\u2019s March 10 game against the Charlotte Hornets<\/a>. \u201cLong story short, we have that long to make up the gap,\u201d the team\u2019s statement said.<\/p>\n

The Trail Blazers are asking fans to buy one or two tickets each, with the prices ranging from $13 to $24. Tickets will be added to a pool of tickets made available to the charity event. You can purchase tickets here<\/a> before next week\u2019s deadline.<\/p>\n

The Trail Blazers and the Hornets appear to be pretty evenly matched. As of this week<\/a>, the Blazers\u2019 record is 26-29, while the Hornets are also 26-29.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Portland Trail Blazers are encouraging fans to buy tickets so that local kids in the Portland area…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":599688,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3784],"tags":[7,601,6,687,471,3967,1617],"class_list":{"0":"post-599687","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-portland-trail-blazers","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-blazers","10":"tag-nba","11":"tag-portland","12":"tag-portland-trail-blazers","13":"tag-portlandtrailblazers","14":"tag-trail-blazers"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/116060027060833628","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599687","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=599687"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/599687\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/599688"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=599687"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=599687"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=599687"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
