Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard expressed his views on the NBA’s plan to resume the season at a centralized location by stating that he would only participate in games if Portland had a reasonable path to the playoffs. In a conversation with Yahoo Sports NBA Insider Chris Haynes, Lillard explained his stance.
“If we come back and I don’t have an opportunity to make the playoffs, I will show up to work, I’ll be at practice and I’ll be with my team. I’m going to do all that [expletive] and then I’m going to be sitting right on that bench during the games,” Lillard told Yahoo Sports.
