Good Fit: Golden State Warriors

Sometimes players want to play near home, and if that’s the case for Damian Lillard, the Golden State Warriors are the closest thing to home for him. Lillard, an Oakland native, would likely welcome the idea of playing for the Warriors.

Getting an opportunity to play for a championship organization that has All-Stars in Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green would be something that entices Lillard.

Lillard would fit right in with a team that incentivizes their players to shoot the ball from outside willingly, which is what Lillard excels at.

Could you imagine the number of three-point shots we’d see from Curry, Thompson, and Lillard being on the floor together? While Golden State’s defense would leave much to be desired if Lillard were acquired, they would more than make up for it with their vast lineup of shooters.
