“He was like, you serious? I’m like, I don’t see what the issue is. So I walk out of the meeting with him, and I’m just like, is our relationship salvageable? I’m thinking to myself, Why would they ask me that?”Lillard said.“I don’t know who’s saying what. So, you know, it’s too late now, like, I’m gonna move on. That’s what he’s saying to me on the phone. So I’m like, all right, bro, I thought everything was smooth. I didn’t even know any of this stuff existed.” Lillard explained the whole thing, and they cleared up the issues.
Now in 2025, Lillard will again play for the Portland. The team looks promising with a talent-stacked roster, and fans are happy to see Lillard return.
