Damian Lillard Returns to Blazers After Bucks Buyout
Damian Lillard is returning to the Portland Trail Blazers on a three-year, $42 million contract after the Milwaukee Bucks waived and stretched his $113 million deal to create cap space and sign Myles Turner. Lillard, currently recovering from a torn Achilles and expected to miss most or all of the upcoming season, chose to rejoin Portland over offers from other championship contenders. His decision reflects a prioritization of legacy and loyalty, as he is already the franchise's all-time leading scorer. The move has drawn widespread support from NBA figures and fans, with Dwyane Wade calling it a perfect fit. Lillard's return also coincides with a period of new ownership and a promising young core in Portland, though his on-court impact remains uncertain due to his age and injury. The reunion is seen as a celebration of enduring player-team bonds in modern sports.
