Damian Lillard, Blazers To Meet This Week; Resolution Not Expected Until Free Agency Plays Out - RealGM Wiretap
Damian Lillard is expected to meet with officials from the Portland Trail Blazers after he returns from his trip to Paris, reports Sam Amick of The Athletic.
According to a source, Lillard will discuss the next steps of the roster-building process with the Blazers. A source also says that Lillard's strong preference to play with the types of players that could make the Blazers contenders hasn't changed despite the team drafting Scoot Henderson, Kris Murray and Rayan Rupert on draft night.
One scenario to appease Lillard that he would be fond of is if the Blazers were to re-sign Jerami Grant while also adding Draymond Green in free agency. The Golden State Warriors are confident of their chances of re-signing Green, while the Blazers also currently lack the necessary cap space to sign him.
Because Joe Cronin and his staff are expected to be afforded time to do business during the free agency period, Lillard likely won't make a final decision on his next steps until those initial days in July play out.
