For @RoseGardenReprt subscribers: I didn’t take Damian Lillard’s comments to @CassidyHubbarth last night as a shot at Shaedon Sharpe, but as a challenge to him to show he’s more than a “mystery man” rosegardenreport.beehiiv.com/p/shaedon-shar…

Next month, @Damian Lillard is launching “Formula Zero” in Portland, an annual invite-only elite skills camp & year-round mentorship for 20 top High School & 20 top College players.
The camp will “provide the highest level of development both on & off the court,” says Lillard. pic.twitter.com/KriIjWpApo – 10:15 PM

Jody Allen, Chair of the Blazers and Seahawks, says “neither of the teams is for sale and there are no sales discussions happening.” Says a sale could come eventually but the Paul Allen estate could take “10-20 years to wind down.” – 2:39 PM

Trailblazers governor Jody Allen just released a statement saying the team and the Seattle Seahawks (the Paul Allen Trust owns both) are not for sale.
“There are no sales discussions happening… There is no pre-ordained timeline by which the teams must be sold.” pic.twitter.com/dv1l4BRsta – 2:38 PM

More on this storyline
Tim Reynolds: Blazers guard Damian Lillard tells @CassidyHubbarth that he feels great after surgery that ended his season early. “I wanted to fight through it. … It got to the point where I had to play it smarter.” Now, he says, “my body is stronger than it was before in certain areas.” -via Twitter @ByTimReynolds / July 8, 2022
“Damian wanted to sit down and have a conversation with Jody about the team and she didn’t return his call. Then he tried to email her. Eventually she just never responded and put him in touch with Bert,” the source alleged. “When you own a team, there are critical key decisions to make and you should be the one involved in making the decisions.” -via New York Post / July 8, 2022
Sean Highkin: Jerami Grant: “Me and Dame got close at USA. I definitely thought it was a possibility. Happy to be here and be a part of this.” -via Twitter @highkin / July 7, 2022
