In honor of the Blazers having the holiday off, here’s a Thanksgiving-themed article to keep you busy before the feast. Enjoy!
Damian Lillard: Turkey
Turkey is the staple of Thanksgiving. The holiday represents giving thanks, but is primarily associated with a big family feast. And what’s at the center of that feast? Turkey.
Damian Lillard is much the same. Ever since being drafted in 2012, he’s became the face of the Blazer franchise. Lillard is the first player associated with the team and rightfully so. He was the only starter to return from the 2015 roster flip and has led Portland in scoring since then.
