Damian Lillard is now a Portland Trail Blazer for the second time, having re-signed with the team that drafted him in 2012 after he was waived by the Milwaukee Bucks on July 6. It was the end of a two-year sojourn with the Bucks, which unfortunately did not land him the championship he sought after asking to be traded out of Portland in 2023.

Everyone seems to be excited Damian Lillard is back with the Blazers, including his daughter, who doesn't have to fly to Milwaukee anymore.
