Damian Lillard finally was traded, from the Trail Blazers to the Bucks, late last month, capping a summer-long saga that appeared as if it never would end.
It’s no secret that Lillard preferred to be traded to the Heat, but a package suitable to Portland’s liking apparently never materialized. Now, according to Ben Mallard of Fox Sports Radio, perhaps the Blazers simply did not want to acquiesce to Lillard and his agent, Aaron Goodwin.
Mallard discussed his intel, collected from anonymous NBA sources, Thursday on Fox Sports Radio.
