Report: Knicks among ‘most aggressive suitors’ for perennial All-Star Damian Lillard

The New York Knicks have been involved in numerous trade rumors last few days, emerging as aggressive players for Collin Sexton and now perennial All-Star Damian Lillard.

The Knicks and Lillard have been connected for quite a few weeks after reports of his frustration growing with the Portland Trailblazers’ front office and management emerged.

Seemingly, he anticipates sticking with Portland for next season, but if they don’t make the sufficient moves to upgrade the team and build around him, he could force his way out, landing him with a new club.

“I haven’t made any firm decision on what my future will be,” Lillard said, opening up the door for a team like the Knicks to make a splash.
