Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard is just a few steps away from etching his spot in the record books.
After scoring 38 points with a career-high 11 threes in Monday night’s blowout win against the Minnesota Timberwolves, Lillard pulled to within 106 points of Clyde Drexler’s all-time franchise record.
Assuming Lillard stays healthy and scores close to his 28.3 points per game average, he will break the record in front of a crowd he doesn’t call home. And he’s not super thrilled about that part.
“I really wish it was at home,” Lillard told reporters following Monday’s win.
