Perhaps Damian Lillard is content riding it out with the Trail Blazers for the time being, or he just has no interest in playing on LeBron’s Lakers.

Either way, it is becoming more and more likely that Dame will at least begin the season with Portland.

However, if the Trail Blazers struggle in the early going of the season (like many are expecting) than I would expect Damian Lillard to be available for a blockbuster mid-season deal.
