Damian Lillard

There wasn’t much time to get off a 3-pointer to beat the first quarter buzzer. Good thing Damian Lillard needed next to none. With Shaedon Sharpe inbounding for the Portland Trail Blazers with 1.1 seconds on the clock, Lillard corralled the pass at the logo and in the same motion fired a 40-footer that was all net as time expired. The seven-time All-Star converted eight treys — all in the first half — as Portland raced to a 19-point halftime lead, and for the game Lillard posted 40 points, six rebounds and five assists in a 127-115 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on February 13, 2023.
