Blazers get Oden back, beat Heat 104-96 (AP)

 
All the buzz was about Greg Oden's return, yet it was another rookie who stole the show for the Portland Trail Blazers. Rudy Fernandez scored 25 points, including a clutch spinning jumper as the shot clock expired with 44.9 seconds left, and the Blazers celebrated Oden's comeback from a sprained right foot with a 104-96 victory over the Miami Heat on Wednesday night.
