Damian Lillard Wants Blazers To Use Assets To Build Competitive Team

Damian Lillard wants to win. He ideally wants to do it with the Portland Trail Blazers. Lillard knows that changing teams won’t guarantee success, so he’d prefer the Blazers try and build a competitive team themselves.

“I want to have an opportunity to win in Portland,” Lillard said. “We got an opportunity, asset-wise, to build a team that can compete. If we can’t do that…then it’s a separate conversation we would have to have.”

The Trail Blazers have the third overall pick at the 2023 NBA Draft. It’s been suggested that Portland could package that pick with current players to bring in win-now talent.

Lillard has repeatedly said that has no interest in being a part of a rebuild. But the Portland star has also said he’s not at the point of asking for a trade from the only franchise he’s ever played for.

The Denver Nuggets lost Bruce Brown this offseason. Most consider that a major loss for the defending champions. Nuggets general manager Calvin Booth doesn’t necessarily agree.

Booth is high on second-year wing Peyton Watson taking a big step forward this season. So much so that Booth believes Watson is ready to replace Brown, albeit in different ways.

“Some of these teams were trying to get Bruce, trying to make it worth it; it’s like, just be careful what you wish for,” Booth said about the rivals that pursued Brown. “Peyton’s bigger. He’s longer. He’s more athletic. He guards better. He passes better. He doesn’t have the experience, and he’s not as good offensively yet, but we need defense more than we need offense on our team.”

Brown signed a two-year, $45 million contract with the Indiana Pacers this past summer. The Nuggets were limited in how much they could offer Brown, as they held only Non-Bird rights for the veteran wing.
