Damian Lillard continues to impress. After helping the Portland Trail Blazers take the number eight seed in the Western Conference and getting the bubble MVP award, he led his team to a playoff win over the Los Angeles Lakers. The 30-year-old point guard had 34 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists last night.
Sports analyst Stephen A. Smith thinks that these performances make Lillard the best basketball player in the world right now. “This brother, the marksmanship, the sniper-like abilities. He is the best basketball player in the world right now,” he said.
