CJ McCollum says Damian Lillard is 'all in' and 'wants to win' with Blazers next season

Portland Trail Blazers fans may have gotten their best sign yet that superstar Damian Lillard is committing to the team for the 2021-2022 season.

On Friday's episode of Adrian Wojnarowski's "The Woj Pod," Lillard's teammate and brand new NBPA president CJ McCollum discussed his recent interactions with Lillard. Despite Lillard's reluctance to publicly commit to his future in Portland, McCollum said that Lillard is ready to attack the upcoming season as a member of the Blazers.

“I don’t want to speak for him, but having a close relationship, him, he and I talk every day, or every other day, from sharing memes to sending videos to each other to serious talks about our season, what it takes to win, what it’s going to takes to win a championship, I have a pretty good sense of where he’s at,” McCollum said via The Oregonian.
