Logo Lillard Determined To Pull Up From Halfcourt

Damian Lillard wants to let it fly from halfcourt this season, according to Aaron Fentress of the Oregonian. The Portland Trail Blazers’ star point guard is already well-known for being able to shoot from beyond the arc with range. In the upcoming season, he wants to take it to the next level, and Coach Terry Stotts can’t stop him.

“I told him I’m going to do it,” Lillard said

To Lillard, taking such a shot that would make most coaches seethe isn’t really that big of a deal.

“I work on my game,” he said.
