Several of the Portland Trail Blazers' younger players had a spooky time heading into Halloween.

Portland's team YouTube channel revealed a hilarious video of center Donovan Clingan, second-year wings Toumani Camara and Taze Moore, point guard Scoot Henderson, and others walking through a spooky haunted house recently, in the spirit of the season.

Clingan and Moore traveled in tandem. Afterwards, the 7-foot-2 UConn product concedes that he needed his comrade's support to push through the spooky maze.

"You saved me, bro," Clingan told Moore, before address Portland's camera team. "If Taze wasn't there, I would've been scared."

Clingan is off to a solid start for his debut pro season. Although the big man may not play enough minutes (barring an injury to or trade of pricey starting center Deandre Ayton) to warrant Rookie of the Year consideration, he could be in line for at least All-Rookie Team consideration. The two-time NCAA Champ is playing sparingly so far, logging 12.6 minutes a night. He's posting a fairly modest line of 4.8 points on 62.5 percent shooting from the field and 75 percent shooting from the foul line, plus 5.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks a night.

Young forward Camara, the No. 52 pick in last year's draft out of Dayton, is serving as the club's starting small forward, averaging 8.4 points on .457/.500/.600 shooting splits, 3.6 rebounds, 2.8 dimes, and 1.8 steals a night.

Moore, another second-year wing, has yet to appear in a game for Portland this season. Last year, the 6-foot-5 shooting guard/small forward out of Houston averaged 4.5 points on 42.1 percent shooting from the floor and 50 percent shooting from the charity stripe, plus 2.0 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.5 steals.

In the 2023 NBA Draft, Henderson was selected with the No. 3 pick after two years with the G League Ignite. Across five contests off the bench for Portland this year, the 6-foot-3 guard is averaging 15.6 points on a .441/.294/.840 slash line, 5.6 dimes, 3.4 boards and 0.8 swipes.

The 2-3 Trail Blazers next suit up against the undefeated (4-0) Oklahoma City Thunder at home on Friday night. Tip off is scheduled for 7 p.m. PT. The team's front office, led by general manager Joe Cronin, is not prioritizing current wins in what he hopes will be a fourth straight draft lottery-bound season — but that doesn't mean his players or head coach Chauncey Billups aren't trying to rack up victories.
