Damian Lillard had himself a night Thursday, dropping 45 points (13-21 FG, 8-10 FT, 11-18 3PT) with four rebounds, 12 assists, three steals and two turnovers in 40 minutes in a win over the Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact:
Lillard couldn’t be stopped tonight, shooting 61 percent from deep. He and Gary Trent Jr. (7-10 3PT) single-handedly scored 54 of Portland’s 125 points from the three-point line alone. Lillard has averaged 42 minutes per game in the re-start, and there’s no reason to believe he won’t continue to see a full workload going forward. Lillard and the Trail Blazers face a tough test against the Clippers on Saturday.
