Report: Top Star Expected To Show Up For Portland Trail Blazers Training Camp

 

The NBA has seen some massive moves over the summer thus far, and fans around the league are waiting for one more, as the rumours around a Damian Lillard trade don't seem to be going away anytime soon, but could he return to Portland next season?

While a lot of rumours have come out that he will play for Miami and no one else next year, it appears that's now officially not the case, as a report has now come out saying that even if he's not moved, Dame will be on the court for the Blazers come training camp.

Damian Lillard is expected to show up and participate in training camp if he’s not traded, per @AaronJFentress

Ultimately, it appears to be in the best interest of both parties if a separation is to happen, but if the Blazers can't get what they're looking for in a deal, then expect Lillard to once again take the court with them next season.
