TORONTO — Forced out in the first quarter by a bad back, LaMarcus Aldridge shook off his soreness and delivered a dominating performance.

Aldridge had a season-high 33 points and a career-best 23 rebounds, and the Portland Trail Blazers beat the Raptors 94-84 Friday night to hand Toronto its seventh consecutive loss.

“He was just a monster out there tonight, both in the paint as well as on the boards,” Portland coach Nate McMillan said.

Raymond Felton scored 14 points, and Marcus Camby and Gerald Wallace each had 10 rebounds as Portland won its seventh straight over Toronto. The Trail Blazers have not lost to the Raptors since a 101-100 overtime defeat on Dec. 22, 2006.

Portland outrebounded Toronto 55 to 40.

Aldridge had 23 points and 11 rebounds in the first half. His previous career high in rebounds was 19 against Milwaukee on Dec. 20, 2010. His career high in points is 42, set against Chicago on Feb. 7, 2011.

“Tonight he just solidified that he is the best power forward in the game,” Camby said.

Maybe, but his night almost ended early. Aldridge was forced to check out in the final minute of the first quarter and head back to the locker room for a quick dose of treatment.

“My back locked up on me and I couldn’t really run or move,” he said. “It came out of nowhere and was real, real bad.”

Iced down and loosened up, Aldridge returned with 7:32 left in the half and immediately grabbed another rebound.

“He put us on his back tonight and that’s what great players do,” Jamal Crawford said. “I could tell he was a little different, even in the warmups. He had a different focus. He wasn’t about to lose tonight.”

It’s the seventh time in Trail Blazers history that a player has combined for at least 30 points and 20 rebounds. Six different players have accomplished the feat; the last was Zach Randolph, who did it at Memphis on April 11, 2003.

Aldridge celebrated his achievement by holding onto the game ball.

“I’m not giving that ball up,” he said.

James Johnson had a career-high 23 points and DeMar DeRozan scored 22 for the Raptors, who have lost nine of 10.

Leandro Barbosa scored 17, Ed Davis had 10 rebounds and Jose Calderon matched his season high with 13 assists for Toronto.

The Trail Blazers led 71-60 to begin the fourth and pushed their lead to 78-62 with 8:15 left. Toronto cut the lead in half, with DeRozan’s running jump shot making it 84-76 with 4:23 to go, but the Raptors were unable to get any closer.
