NBA superstar Damian Lillard has revealed he held secret trade talks to potentially join forces with LeBron James at the four-time MVP’s mansion in Los Angeles.
Lillard - a six-time All-Star - was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers with the sixth pick in the 2012 NBA Draft and has plied his trade with the franchise throughout his entire career. The point guard has been linked with a move away from the team for the last few seasons as he continues to chase a maiden championship.
He has been linked with a move to the Los Angeles Lakers among other teams over the last few years, and Lillard sensationally revealed James and fellow superstar Anthony Davis attempted to entice him into joining the storied franchise. The three stars talked about the possibility of playing together on the Lakers over dinner and wine at James’ home in LA.
