Damian Lillard Day? Portland Mayor Says ‘We’ll Make That Happen’

One day after Damian Lillard set Portland Trail Blazer and personal records in the team’s 129-124 overtime win against Golden State, Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler suggested the idea of a “Damian Lillard Day.”

Former Blazer Evan Turner went a step further and suggested the city name a street or a high school after the Portland star point guard.

Dolla with another 60 point effort??
