The NBA world was rocked to its core Wednesday afternoon when the news broke that the Trail Blazers made a blockbuster three-team deal that landed Damian Lillard with the Bucks. It didn’t take long for Lillard to chime in on X, formerly known as Twitter, to confirm the news and tease a more formal goodbye for the city of Portland.
“The casuals won’t be addressed but the trailblazers fans and city of Portland that I love truly will be … and they will be addressed truthfully. Stay tuned,” he wrote on X. “Excited for my next chapter!”
Lillard demanded a trade and it was widely reported that he would only play for the Heat. His latest post appears to confirm he’s committed to suiting up for Milwaukee.
