Amidst the crucible of tough times, the signs of true winners lie in their ability to stay true to their nature. One such example on the list in recent times is the Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard. Despite the uncertainties over his move to Miami, he recently dropped an update that attracted the attention of many fans.
Even after his best efforts for months, Dame has not been able to move away from Portland. With a trade looking difficult, he chose to be himself and dropped a bomb for the NBA supporters to react.

The point guard has been waiting to leave the Blazers since handing in a trade request on July 1st. The Miami Heat has displayed a keen interest in signing the 33-year-old superstar since the talks have broken out. Nothing materialized since then, as the franchises failed to reach an agreement over a potential deal.
With the NBA imposing new rules and restrictions amidst the controversies, his trade move looks more unlikely at this stage. The Blazers can longer shut him out of the team entirely without showing proper clarification and reasons. At the same time, the management does not want to risk losing him in exchange for an unfavorable deal.
All in all, the current scenario hints at the 7-time All-Star starting yet another season as an unhappy leading star in the league. Despite the dramatic events, Dame seemed to have maintained a level-headed approach to things. He recently dropped a song titled Hook Mitchell,?in collaboration with RexxLifeRaj.

The accomplished rapper Dame D.O.L.L.A. took precedence over his basketball self as his hopes of moving to the Heat continued to fade away. The NBA fans were quick to react to Lillard’s recent activities as they voiced their opinions.
How did the NBA supporters react?
The supporters joined forces to cheer for the former Rookie of the Year after he released his latest track. One particular fan loved the efforts of Dame as he claimed, “Need Dame to collab with Drake”.
