Damian Lillard has recorded 37 30-point and 10-assist games in his career, which is just one game shy of Michael Jordan’s 38.
Damian Lillard has been carrying the team this 2020-21 NBA season. It’s quite ironic as this is perhaps the best team that Lillard has ever been surrounded with since he came into this league. However, due to a slew of injuries to players like CJ McCollum, Zach Collins, and Jusuf Nurkic, the 6’2 point guard has had a lot on his shoulders.
Despite the injuries, Damian Lillard has taken the subpar Blazers to a record well above .500. Following a blowout loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, Portland remains as the 6th seed out West with a record of 29-18.
Dame currently leads the league in total points scored this season with 1375 and total 30 point games with 27. If he continues to play at the level he’s been playing at for these first 47 games of the season, he’ll put his name alongside the GOAT himself.
