NBA Rumors: Another Team In The East Expresses Interest In Damian Lillard

 

The Damian Lillard sweepstakes have been a major talking point of the NBA world this summer, and while the Miami Heat have been the favourites to land the All-NBA point guard this whole time, it appears that there's some new teams joining the race now.

According to a report, not only are the Toronto Raptors a team to watch, but the Chicago Bulls have now emerged as a genuine suitor for the superstar guard, as they still look to deal with the fallout of the Lonzo Ball injury crisis.

With veterans like DeMar Derozan, Nikola Vucevic and Zach Lavine, the team could benefit from a star guard like Lillard leading the way, but with limited resources, to make a deal, they would no doubt need to get another team involved.
