Ice Cube Urges Damian Lillard To Join The Lakers

Damian Lillard was always considered to be a successor of Dirk, Tim and Kobe – someone to remain with his franchise for the entirety of his career. Dirk’s loyalty and the loyalty Dallas gave back to Dirk is something Damian Lillard always drew inspiration from anyways.

But in a turn of events, things are not looking as certain anymore, and according to a report from Chris Haynes, the Portland Trail Blazers could be dealing with a Damian Lillard trade request in the nearest future.

Last week, NBA Twitter blew up when Lillard was seen hanging out with LeBron James during a WNBA game. This obviously added more fuel to the trade rumors surrounding the Blazers All-Star.

And now, while being guest on Stephen A’s World, O’Shea Jackson, better known as Ice Cube urged Lillard to sign with the Lakers if he wants to win a championship.

“If you want a championship, you should come join the Lakers, If you want to just score a lot of points and be the man, stay in Portland. But come win a championship. You deserve it. He’s given a lot to that city. So give some of that love to the L.A. Lakers.”
