The temperature will rise and in what way in the NBA. After James Harden was placed on the trade market, after the main free names were signed, behold, Damian Lillard finally came forward with a request to be traded from the Portland Trail Blazers.
The scenario had already been discussed for at least two years and Dame’s stay with the Blazers, the team that chose him in the 2012 draft, has now come to an end.
According to information coming from the USA, there are four teams that are in the running for the 32-year-old base. The Clippers, the Nets, the 76ers and the Heat are those teams, and the last one is even pointed out as the main candidate to have the player. Lillard recently said he would like to play for the Heat and last season’s finalists look ready to welcome the player.
However, there are other teams in the race, with far more arguments than the Heat, especially when it comes to future draft picks and even interesting young players. In the coming weeks there will certainly be news.
Lillard tried his best not to leave the Blazers, but the team’s inability to put more talent around led to the breakup. The base is the best scorer in the team’s history, a mark he reached last season. The best he could do for the Blazers was reach the 2019 Conference Finals.
