With Dame back in Portland, the Timberwolves had a similar scenario a decade ago

On Thursday, it was first reported by Shams Charania of ESPN that Damian Lillard would be heading back to the Trail Blazers. After two seasons with the Bucks, the 35-year-old is returning to the place he called home for his first 11 NBA seasons.
