Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard has found himself linked to Los Angeles Lakers trade rumors, but the guard made it clear that he is happy with the Blazers at a brief Summer League availability Sunday (transcription via Blazers beat reporter Casey Holdahl):
I’m straight up. I’m straight up with Coach, I’m straight up with Neil, I’m straight up with y’all. I’m not unhappy. I love where I live, I love the organization, I love our coaching staff, I love who I am. Like I said last year, it’s the urgency of wanting to make those steps in the right direction so we can compete.
