Comment on Nets’ best trade offer for Damian Lillard includes four first-round draft picks

Nets’ best trade offer for Damian Lillard includes four first-round draft picks

Four first-round picks, first-round pick swaps, second-round picks — and matching salary. It’s the best trade package the Nets can put together in a potential deal for Damian Lillard. The Portland Trail Blazers’ superstar guard ended a years-long charade when his official trade request became public on Saturday afternoon. The Nets are among the teams that have been linked to a potential deal with the Trail Blazers, alongside the defending Eastern Conference champion Miami Heat and a sudden Western Conference wild card: the San Antonio Spurs. The soon to be 33-year-old Lillard has a strong relationship with Brooklyn’s franchise cornerstone, Mikal Bridges, and Portland’s perennial All-Star has been linked to the Nets ever since Bridges was dealt as part of the Kevin Durant deal. Acquiring Lillard would immediately vault the Nets back into championship contention.
