The 2002-03 Portland Trail Blazers enjoyed a strong regular season, finishing with a 50-32 record and securing the sixth seed in the Western Conference to extend their historic playoff streak to 21 consecutive years. Led by Rasheed Wallace and the veteran presence of Scottie Pippen, the team showcased incredible resilience in the postseason by becoming one of the few teams in NBA history to force a Game 7 after trailing 3-0 in a series against the Dallas Mavericks. The 11th overall pick in the 1998 NBA Draft, Bonzi Wells was a versatile swingman and co-captain for the Portland Trail Blazers who set a franchise record with 45 points in a playoff game and averaged 12.1 points over a 10-season career.
