Damian Lillard: I Would Play for the Jazz or Lakers If Blazers Didn't Want Me

Damian Lillard has always been pretty candid on Twitter, but the Portland Trail Blazers point guard turned some heads when he tweeted about playing for two other teams on Wednesday.

Responding to a question about signing with a team other than Portland, the 26-year-old pointed to the Utah Jazz and Los Angeles Lakers:

Lillard added an important qualifier: "If [the] Blazersย said they didn't want me."

The two-time All-Star and 2013 NBA Rookie of the Year has spent all five of his professional seasons with Portland. He's under contract through 2020-21.
