This week is all about celebrating Damian Lillard. On the eve of the game that Damian Lillard could become the Portland Trail Blazers’ leading scorer, Tara and Rose talk about the man who means so much to Rip City. How did he get here? What makes him so special? And how lucky are we to witness this milestone?
We have lots of stories and tons of sources you can check out in the list below. With someone as interesting as he is, with so many accolades, accomplishments and awards it was hard to narrow down our favorite Damian Lillard stories. So if we didn’t talk about YOUR favorite, let us know what we missed! Hit us up on twitter (@wehaveatake) or in the discord server with your favorite memories of Damian Lillard’s career (so far).
All of this PLUS a really exciting Social Media Player of the Week (yes, it's Josh Hart!)
