So happy for both parties here. @Dame_Lillard from day 1 has been productive on and off the court! https://t.co/lu9tcX8WO7

Damian Lillard is going to be making almost 600K a game next season #SecureTheBag

If Evan Turner makes 17 million a year, why shouldn't Damian Lillard make 50?

Once again, no max salaries would get stars a lot closer to what they are actually worth and a lot less role players would be overpaid.

Damian Lillard absolutely, 100% deserves all the money. Rip City could not ask for more in a franchise player. He has redefined this organization, developed as a leader, and shown his true mettle over and over again.
