Damian Lillard has been enjoying watching football lately. The Bucks’ guard is a big-time fan of the Raiders but recently, he’s been closely watching other teams as well. Such was his case with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers are off to a great start after their 18-10 win over the Falcons. This win was powered by their new member, Justin Fields who spent his last three years in Chicago. While his time with the Bears was quite defining, it seems that Pittsburgh might be his desirable destination.

Lillard recently shared his thoughts on Fields’ performance following the Steelers’ win on Twitter. “I think I’m seeing who held Justin Fields back fr… cuz wtf are we doing”, wrote Lillard. Of course, after recording 156 passing yards in his Steelers debut, Fields seemed to have sent flashbacks to Luke Getsy. Fields has a lot of potential and with the Steelers, he ought to unleash every bit of it. As he plays the Broncos next, it will be interesting to see him put up a similar performance yet again.

On the other hand, Damian Lillard is eyeing the Raiders’ comeback after the squad took a tough loss against the Chargers in week 1. However, the Raiders redeemed themselves after a close game against the Ravens, as they bagged their first win of the season. In the previous season, Lilalrd’s favorite team finished the season with an 8-9 record missing the playoffs. Nevertheless, the Raiders have high hopes going into this season. Lillard, being a loyal fan will be supporting the squad, as he sets out for his own obligations.

Dame and the Bucks are heading towards what seems to be an important season for Milwaukee. In the last two years, the Bucks have struggled because of injuries. While they’re still the top contenders in the East, the squad is hopeful of a healthy season as they look to establish a postseason threat yet again.

Damian Lillard has a lot to look forward to

As much as Lillard wants to enjoy watching his favorite team in action, the guard has a lot of responsibilities to take care of. Now, Damian Lillard had a hard time adjusting in Milwaukee after leaving Portland. Still, the 34-year-old managed to put up great numbers and efficiency throughout the season. He averaged 24.3 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 7 assists in his first season as a Buck. However, Lillard’s injuries got the best of him as it cost the Bucks the first-round series against the Pacers.

Nevertheless, it will be interesting to watch Dame and Giannis finally get back at it, as they look forward to dominating the East this year. The Bucks will prepare for the pre-season games which are to tip off in the next three weeks. What are your thoughts on Damian Lillard and the Bucks? Do you think they can make it out of the East?
