Damian Lillard: Goes for 18 points in preseason victory

The All-Star’s point total paced the starting five and Lillard has now posted 34 points over his first 47 minutes of preseason action over two games. The 26-year-old hasn’t gotten it going from the beyond the arc yet– he’s only 2-for-9 from long range through the first pair of exhibitions– but is shooting 46 percent (12-for-26) from the field overall. While a slight downturn in production might be inevitable due to better offensive depth for the Blazers this coming season, Lillard should still slot in as one of the top point guards in the league in all fantasy formats.
