Jorge Sierra: Damian Lillard wants that In-Season Tournament prize money… but mostly for teammates who are not so well off financially: “You got guys on two-way contracts who are trying to earn a stay and that prize in the end could change their family’s lives.”

With Giannis Antetokounmpo sidelined last night in Toronto, Damian Lillard put on a show.
“That just shows the level of attention he commands, and rightfully so…He’s a one-man offense.” – Brook Lopez

Damian Lillard and Malik Beasley’s hot shooting lead the way 🎯🎯 in a #Bucks victory
And for Lillard, it was the complete offensive performance many have come to expect.

Poeltl on Lillard: “He’s an incredible player but, me personally, I was slow to react to what he was trying to do out there… He was punishing us getting by people, getting to the rim, getting layups, and I’ve gotta do a better job of reacting to that and being able to read that” – 10:24 PM

Darko said going away from Poeltl was about getting someone who could switch more to help with Lillard pick and rolls. Offence didn’t allow them to continue. – 10:10 PM

Well, if the Raptors didn’t care for Mazzulla’s challenge late in a blowout, not sure they’re going to be thrilled about Dame coming back in with Milwaukee up 20 and 3.5 minutes left.
On the plus side, it’s Markquis Nowell time! – 9:48 PM

Lillard scored or assisted on 46 of Milwaukee’s 70 first-half points. He’s only taken 9 shots.
Bucks are outscoring the Raptors 30-12 from 3-point range and have 18 points off Toronto’s 12 turnovers. It’s a 23-point halftime deficit for the Raps. – 8:44 PM

36-21 Bucks. Raptors have missed their next 3s after hitting their first two. Defensively they are … not very good. Bucks are 12-of-20 from floor. Dame has 14 points and five assists. – 8:12 PM

Siakam finally puts an end to a 17-0 Bucks run. The Raptors held Lillard to 15 points here a couple weeks ago. Well, Dame already has 8 in about 7 minutes. He and Beasley have combined for 16 of Milwaukee’s 21 points. Raps are down 11 early. – 7:58 PM

More on this storyline
“I’m friends with a lot of people. I think friendships help,” said Bridges, who’s bond with Damian Lillard made Brooklyn an appealing destination as the All-NBA guard attempted to navigate his exit from the Trail Blazers this summer and fall. “Obviously, if I think it’s a good option, then yeah,” Bridges said, but he’s not proactively giving recruiting pitches across the league. “Not unless it makes sense. I’m just trying to win now and do what it takes. You can talk about all the ‘what ifs’ and ‘maybe this,’ but you can’t control that. Other than that just trying to win now. I’m more locked in on the guys here.” -via Yahoo! Sports / November 16, 2023
Jorge Sierra: Dame: “Even if it’s not for you individually, it’s something that you could do for the next person.” -via Twitter @hoopshype / November 16, 2023
ESPN Stats: Damian Lillard is the first player in Bucks history to score 35 points and assist on 35 points in the same game. -via Twitter / November 16, 2023
