Damian Lillard did not mince words when he revealed his thoughts and how he was handling CJ McCollum now playing for New Orleans.
The duo had been playing side-by-side in Portland since the 2013–14 season until earlier this month, when McCollum was traded to the Pelicans along with Larry Nance Jr. and Tony Snell in exchange for Josh Hart, Tomáš Satoranský, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Didi Louzada, a future first-round pick and a pair of second-round picks.
“You get to a point where maybe something has run its course. You gotta re-route yourself and try to figure out what’s the best thing, what’s the best angle to take at this point,” Lillard said on an upcoming episode of The Draymond Green Show.
