Damian Lillard doesn’t want any playoff teams left to win the NBA Finals because it means a star younger than him gets a ring
Giannis speaks on frustrations in missing playoffs due to injury
Milwaukee Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo expresses his frustration in not being able to play in the playoffs and shares his optimism for next year.
In a sentiment felt by many Milwaukee Bucks fans right now, Damian Lillard doesn’t want any of the remaining teams in the playoffs to win the NBA Finals.
He said so during an alternate broadcast on TruTV for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals Wednesday night.
The all-time great guard said its been difficult to watch playoff basketball since the Bucks lost in the first round to the Indiana Pacers. The competitor in the all-star doesn’t want to see any of the young stars on the remaining teams get a championship ring before him.
“One of these teams really ’bout to win a championship,” Lillard said. “Usually I’ll be pulling for the team that already won a ring before so nobody will win one before me. But all four of these teams … whoever win … somebody’s gonna get their first one before me this year, no matter who wins.”
“I become a little hater toward the end,” he added.
Regardless of the 33-year-old Lillard and his wishes to be a champion, somebody else is going to win it all next month.
In the West, there is the Minnesota Timberwolves and young phenom Anthony Edwards (age 22) or the Dallas Mavericks and Slovenian star Luka Dončić (25). The Eastern Conference Finals started on Tuesday and participating is the Boston Celtics and star Jayson Tatum (26) and the Indiana Pacers and Oshkosh native Tyrese Haliburton (24).
Lillard talks Achilles injury
The Bucks’ season came to a disappointing end as a team that started with high hopes but ended up trying to build chemistry amid changes and injuries. Giannis Antetokounmpo suffered a left calf strain near the end of the regular season, sidelining him for the first round. While Lillard reaggravated an Achilles injury in Game 3 and sat for some of the series. Lillard returned in the pivotal Game 6, but the Bucks lost.
He addressed the injury in Wednesday’s broadcast on TruTV. Lillard said he recently started physical therapy. “I’m doing my PT stuff just trying to get it … to full strength, start moving on it before I get back on the court so I can get right,” Lillard said.
Lillard joined the program by video from Portland, where he played 11 seasons with the Trail Blazers, and lives in the offseason. He said once the season was over he returned to the Pacific Northwest where his kids attend school. “When the season is over, … I go back to my normal life,” he said.
Lillard on the faces of the NBA
The hosts of the program asked Lillard to weigh in on young stars and faces of the league as there seems to be a changing of the guard in the NBA as older stars like Lebron James (39), Steph Curry (36) and Kevin Durant (35) are definitely in the second half of their careers and have all been eliminated from the playoffs.
Lillard played with Edwards last summer for USA Basketball and said he enjoys his game, but he is interested in the potential of another young star drafted No. 1 overall — Victor Wembanyama (20) of the San Antonio Spurs by the way of France.
“I think by next season people gonna be talking ’bout (Wembanyama) as being the best player in the league,” Lillard said.

Bodycam footage shows a Milwaukee police shootout with a man who fled from officers
Bodycam video of shootout between Marquis Little and Milwaukee Police
Body camera video captures the foot chase and shootout between Marquis Little, 20, and a pursuing Milwaukee Police officer on Sunday, March 24, 2024.
Provided by Milwaukee Police Department
A man who Milwaukee police shot after a short foot chase on the city’s north side pleaded not guilty to attempted homicide charges.
Marquis Little was arraigned in Milwaukee County Circuit Court on Wednesday, roughly three months after he was shot by officers who were responding to a shots-fired call. Police released bodycam video of the incident on May 9.
Little, 20, of Milwaukee, appeared in court with his attorney Andrew Sargent to enter his plea, but he already may be positioning himself to change his mind. A plea hearing in the case has been scheduled in six weeks, online court records show.

Three officers have been placed on administrative duty as the Wauwatosa Police Department leads an investigation into the shooting. Police recovered a gun at the scene.
Here’s what happened:
In a criminal complaint, police say they got several calls about shots fired on March 24 around 11:15 p.m. The shots appeared to have been fired near North 64th Street and Sheridan Avenue.
Officers arrived and found a man armed with a handgun, who they say ran and ignored their commands for him to stop.
The body camera footage of the pursuit opens with images from inside an apartment building of a man running down a set of stairs, trying to get away from police. It then switches to a scene outside. Officers are heard giving out a description of the suspect over the radio — that of a male wearing an orange hoodie and a black backpack.
Police chased the man for about two blocks.
The footage appears to show the man failing to comply with repeated orders to stop. At times, one officer could be heard warning the man he would be tased or shot if he didn’t stop.
“Stop! Stop! … You’re gonna get shot,” an officer yells out. But the suspect continues to run.

The video shows the man stop in a clearing next to a building, at which time, the buzz of a taser is heard. The officer, with his handgun drawn, orders the man to drop his weapon.
Police said the man fired two shots at the officers, who returned fire, hitting him. About a dozen shots are heard in the video, though it was not immediately clear how many shots each officer fired.
The man is seen running again, but he collapses a few yards away.
Officers can be seen on the recording giving the man medical attention until emergency medical technicians arrived.
What are the charges?
Little faces a charge of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and two counts of first-degree recklessly endangering safety.
What is next for Marquis Little?
His next court appearance will be the plea hearing, which is scheduled for July 2.
Circuit Court Judge Laura Crivello set Little’s bond in April at $150,000. He remained in the Milwaukee County Jail on Wednesday, online court records show.
