There’s also Ben Simmons, the Sixers All-Star who spends nearly all of his off time in Los Angeles and would add a much-needed playmaking dimension to the Clippers. If it came to the point where a trade was inevitable, Los Angeles wouldn’t have many goodies to add to a trade involving George, and if the Blazers would rather have younger players and picks, the Clippers would easily be outbid. But Lillard has four seasons remaining on his contract. It’s worth noting that in 2019 Lillard was on Leonard’s list of stars he wanted to team up with, league sources say. Here's more from O'Connor's story on Thursday about what the future holds for the Clippers after being eliminated by the Suns on Wednesday night, which included an interesting nugget about the Sixers:ĭamian Lillard is disgruntled with the Trail Blazers, according to Yahoo’s Chris Haynes. Marc Zumoff, beloved Sixers play-by-play announcer, announces retirement.Stay or go: Does Dwight Howard fit with Sixers, or should they search elsewhere?.Mailbag: Could the Sixers fire Doc Rivers? Should they worry about signing Embiid's supermax deal?.Is Danny Green's time with the Sixers over?.

Of course the Sixers would be interested in trading for Lillard, the Blazers All-Star point guard who reportedly is unhappy with the state of affairs in Portland, from another early postseason exit to the process behind the decision to hire Chauncey Billups as the team's next coach. According to The Ringer's Kevin O'Connor, the Sixers are indeed interested in landing Damian Lillard should the star guard be put on the trade block.įor starters, duh.
