Damian Lillard is one of the stellar performers and icons of the Portland Trail Blazers franchise over the past decade, complete with long-term deals that will keep him in the organization for years to come. But did you know that Damian Lillard was in fact almost traded to the New York Knicks.

But in an interview with Lisa Robinson of Vanity Fair, in which Lillard addresses current social issues, the All-Star five times revealed that she once thought she might go to the New York Knicks.

“I thought I was going there a few years ago, I heard rumors that I was going to trade,” Lillard said of New York. “Garden is my favorite place to play.”

Thinking back to a few years ago, there are two reports that have emerged. January 22, 2018, Yahoo Sports NBA Insider, Chris Haynes, who was with ESPN at that time, write an article about Lillard’s meeting with Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen.

So according to Haynes, Paul Allen was worried that Lillard might ask to trade. But as it turned out that wasn’t the case, his pick of the Portland Trail Blazers to find someone he could join CJ McCollum was right. But if they can’t improve the team and if they can’t find anyone, then he’s interested in going to one of the two team spinners.

“If Damian Lillard is going to leave Portland and be profitable financially, that’s only two places for me to say. He’s only interested in New York or LA. One of the two. New York or LA, I mean the Lakers, not the Clippers. That’s what Damian Lillard wants. “
