2. Damian Lillard, Guard, Milwaukee Bucks

After spending all 11 seasons of his memorable career as a Blazer, Lillard will now be entering a new chapter with the Milwaukee Bucks after getting traded last month. Lillard, a former NBA 75 selection, is the premier clutch scorer of his generation, with a career 48.5 effective field goal percentage, according to inpredictable.

Lillard is coming off a season that saw him record a career-high in points (32.2) in 58 games for the Blazers last season. Lillard has struggled with injuries the last few seasons, playing just 58 last year and 29 in 2021–22. For the most part, he’s been an Iron Man throughout his career and looks to have his first real shot at capturing his first championship.

The Bucks are the heavy title favorites now and the favorites to come out of the Eastern Conference, with only the Celtics posing a real threat.

Get ready, Milwaukee, because it’s “Dame Time’.
