Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard is one of the most talked about NBA stars heading into this offseason as rumors continue to swirl that the veteran could potentially be traded away.
Lillard spoke with Portland general manager Joe Cronin on Monday, and ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported that the seven-time All-Star still did not officially request a trade in the meeting.
“From what I understand, the tender of the meeting was that he doesn’t want to put pressure on the Blazers, that he wants to see what they do in free agency and he’s going to give them that time to do that,” Windhorst said on Tuesday’s episode of Get Up. “He’s still not pressing from what I’ve been told. He’s still going to give the Blazers every opportunity to work through this free agency process.”
