Over the summer, rumors that Damian Lillard would be dealt circulated. Against the wishes of the Portland Trail Blazers, Lillard requested a trade because he was fed up with losing after playing for the franchise for 11 seasons. When he first asked the Heat for a trade, the Blazers made an effort to comply.

Miami gave Portland to the Milwaukee Bucks because they didn’t have enough trade bait to pique his attention. Although the move wasn’t awful, it didn’t provide Lillarad what he desired.

The seven-time All-Star has acknowledged that he had communication with Jimmy Butler the entire time. Following Lillard’s trade to the Bucks, the Miami star and Lillard had a chance to speak.

Lillard said, “We’ve always been in contact with each other.” “I said to myself at first, ‘I want to go to Miami,'” I acknowledged. He was a major factor in that. Nothing like that happened. I’ve got here. That won’t, however, alter our friendship. In the same way, absolutely. In other words, it never happened. It was out of my control and his.

There is a chance that the Bucks and Trail Blazers will face off in the postseason. If Butler and Lillard got together, it would be fascinating to see.
