Seven-time All-Star LaMarcus Aldridge announced his retirement from the NBA today after another bout with an irregular heartbeat. As players and fans reminisce on some of his more memorable performances, former Portland Trail Blazers teammate Damian Lillard took to ESPN’s Jalen and Jacoby to campaign for the retirement of Aldridge’s No. 12 jersey in Portland.
“It’s time for the Blazers to retire No. 12. You know, he had an amazing career in a Trail Blazers uniform. I think everybody was expecting him to return, and he ended up leaving and it was kind of like people felt some type of way about it.
