Damian Lillard is returning to Portland.
On Thursday the sudden news broke that Lillard, currently a free agent as he recovers from an Achilles tear during the Milwaukee Bucks' postseason run, would be signing with the Trail Blazers on a three-year deal worth $42 million, as reported by Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix. The final year of the contract includes a player option and a no-trade clause.
