Damian Lillard seems to be enjoying himself more in Portland these days. Not sure if alleged rift between he and former teammate LaMarcus Aldridge was true, or if he’s just having more fun with CJ McCollum, but something seems different.
He’s enjoying his time so much that he plans on staying in Portland his entire career. Sure, guys say that all the time, then bolt when free agency comes calling, but for some reason, Dame seems believable here (to the extent he can control his future, that is):
“It’s always good to be the first one to do something,’’ Lillard said. “Especially being part of an organization I plan on being a part of for my entire career. It’s an honor, but I would have liked for it to be in a winning effort.’’
