It feels like Damian Lillard appears in potential trade rumors every single offseason, but the 32-year-old guard has continuously dispelled those notions and showed loyalty to the Portland Trail Blazers organization.

That may not be the case this time around.

The Blazers star guard was recently on The Last Stand as a guest and noted a few trade destinations that stood out to him.

“Miami, obviously,” Lillard laughed. Miami is the obvious one because Bam [Adebayo] is my dog. Brooklyn is another obvious one because Mikal Bridges is my dog too and both have capable rosters.”

Lillard has not ruled out a return to Portland, but it is becoming increasingly more clear that he wants a chance to win. The Trail Blazers roster is not close to contending at this point in time.

Adding more fuel to the fire, Lillard’s mansion in Portland has reportedly been listed on the market for a whopping $7 million USD. It is worth noting, however, that Lillard plans on building a new house in the Portland area.

Maybe it is just another offseason of rumors and nothing more, but Lillard seems more set on winning than ever before.

A player as talented as him should be on a squad with higher aspirations.
