About This Trend
Damian Lillard is a nine-time NBA All-Star and professional basketball player who has been waived by the Milwaukee Bucks.
Lillard is trending due to the Bucks' decision to waive him and stretch his $113 million contract over five years to free up cap space for signing center Myles Turner. Lillard, who suffered an Achilles injury in the 2025 playoffs, reportedly feels elated about the move, with multiple contending teams already expressing interest in signing him.
