Obviously, many stars around the league would love the opportunity to play with Kevin Durant, and that includes Damian Lillard.

With all the buzz out there, Lillard took to social media to post a photoshopped picture of him with KD in a Trail Blazers uniform.

Damian Lillard sat out most of the entire 2021-22 season with an injury, but will undoubtedly look to come back with a vengeance next season.

Since he’s ascended as one of the top players in the league, the Trail Blazers have struggled to get over the hump. But adding a player of Durant’s caliber could certainly change that narrative.

At this point in his career, it’s hard to blame Damian Lillard for being so blatant with his wish to play with another superstar.
