NBA Rumors: Damian Lillard Hated Bucks Tenure, Preferred Trade From Portland To Different Team

A new report from a pair of Portland Trail Blazers insiders claims Damian Lillard never wanted to be traded to the Milwaukee Bucks. And he preferred being dealt to a different Eastern Conference club two years ago. The future Hall of Famer hit free agency for the first time in his career this summer. While he likely will miss all of the 2025-26 NBA season, he had many suitors, including contenders, around the league. Yet, the nine-time All-Star stunned NBA observers when he chose to return to the franchise where he became a superstar, the Trail Blazers. Damian Lillard stats (2024-25): 24.9 PPG, 4.7 RPG, 7.1 APG, 1.2 SPG, 38% 3PT In a new edition of the Blazers Focused podcast, Trail Blazers insiders Aaron Fentress and Craig Birnbach explained that Lillard's deep love for his children played a massive role in his decision. Despite the Blazers being a team that will fight for a play-in spot in upcoming seasons, and other high-profile point guards like Jrue Holiday on the roster, Lillard preferred to be close to his children and back in a city he loves. However, there was another interesting bit of intelligence that came out of the conversation. 'Also, he was not happy in Milwaukee,' Fentress said. 'He didn't want to go there in the first place; he wanted to go to Miami. He relented and went to Milwaukee because his agent talked him into it.' Damian Lillard contract: Three years, $70 million The NBA great hit the open market this offseason after Milwaukee shockingly bout out the rest of his contract. That decision was made so they could add Indiana Pacers star Myles Turner to the roster and not have a massive luxury tax bill. Lillard will be paid $22.6 million annually by the Bucks over the next five years. He signed a three-year deal worth $70 million with Portland last week.

Second Quarter Earnings Season Update: Banks Beat

Banks provided a strong start to the second quarter earnings season. During this busy earnings week, ... More the crucial technology companies begin to report, including Google's parent, Alphabet. (Photo by Smith Collection/Gado/Getty Images) The second-quarter earnings season kicks into gear this week. 110 S&P 500 companies are scheduled to report, with more banks but also expanding to other industries. Notable companies scheduled to release earnings include: Domino's Pizza (DPZ), Coca-Cola (KO), ServiceNow (NOW), United Rentals (URI), and Intel (INTC) Earnings Season At A Glance As forecasted in last week's earnings preview, the banks got the earnings season off to a strong start. According to FactSet, a robust 83% of S&P 500 companies are reporting earnings above the consensus estimates. S&P 500 Earnings Season Summary Earnings Estimates Summary Companies reporting and combining actual results with consensus estimates for companies yet to report, the S&P 500's blended earnings growth rate for the quarter is at 5.6% year-over-year, above the 4.9% expectations at the end of the quarter. Notably, the expected earnings growth rate for calendar year 2025 is 9.3%, and for 2026, the expectations are at 14.0%. S&P 500 Earnings Estimate Summary Market Performance The S&P 500 rose modestly last week. The Magnificent 7, consisting of Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META), (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), NVIDIA (NVDA), Alphabet (GOOGL), and Tesla (TSLA), outperformed. Market Returns Magnificent 7 Because these companies are critical drivers of earnings growth and a significant percentage of the S&P 500's market capitalization, the Magnificent 7 remains the group to watch this earnings season. According to FactSet, the Magnificent 7 should experience 14.1% year-over-year earnings growth for the quarter, compared to 3.4% for the other stocks in the S&P 500. The first of the Magnificent 7 is scheduled to report results this week, with Tesla (TSLA) and Alphabet (GOOGL) after the close on Wednesday. Tesla enters the week with low expectations, but Alphabet is expected to report robust earnings growth. The details for Alphabet will be necessary, as the stock has been held back by worries that artificial intelligence (AI) will disrupt their search business. While this disruption seems inevitable, the ability of Google to monetize AI-driven search will be crucial. Magnificent 7: Q2 Estimated Earnings Growth Earnings Insights By Sector Positive earnings surprises from the financial sector were the most significant contributor to the improved earnings picture. Better-than-expected earnings from JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Travelers Companies (TRV), Wells Fargo (WFC), Citigroup (C), and Goldman Sachs (GS) were the most significant contributors last week, according to FactSet. Earnings Growth Estimates By Sector Sales growth is closely tied to nominal GDP growth, which combines after-inflation economic growth (real GDP) with inflation. Following better-than-expected data last week, sales growth of 4.4% is ahead of the 4.2% year-over-year expectation at the end of the quarter. If the estimates of second quarter nominal year-over-year GDP growth of 4.7% are correct, there could be further upside to sales growth. Better sales results in the financial and healthcare sectors were the most significant driver of the improvement in expected revenue growth last week, according to FactSet. Sales Growth Estimates By Sector Dollar Weakness Versus Tariff Drag The US dollar weakened relative to the same quarter in the previous year. On the margin, this should benefit companies' international earnings. According to FactSet, 41% of S&P 500 sales are from international sources. Goldman Sachs estimates that a 10% depreciation in the US dollar increases S&P 500 earnings per share by 2-3%. Furthermore, companies tend to have an easier time outperforming consensus sales growth estimates during periods of US dollar weakness. Notably, the technology sector has the highest international sales exposure of all the S&P 500 sectors. US Dollar Weakness What To Watch Next Week Earnings should be the main event next week. There are some economic releases scheduled, but all are likely second-tier barring a considerable surprise. The better-than-expected retail sales report last Thursday provided more evidence that the US economy remains resilient despite the tariff increases, which drove the betting odds of a 2025 recession even lower. Betting Odds Of 2025 US Recession Despite noting that he is unlikely to fire Federal Reserve Chair Powell, President Trump continues to pressure him and refuses to rule out the possibility if fraud is involved. This conflict has the potential to add market volatility, with betting markets indicating a 21% chance of Powell's removal. Betting Odds Of Fed Chair Powell's Removal News about the administration's trade negotiations and new tariff announcements will continue to be a focus. Significant new tariffs are currently scheduled to take effect on August 1, unless an acceptable trade agreement is reached. The Financial Times reported that President Trump was considering tariffs of 15-20% on imports from the European Union, an increase from the current 10% baseline tariff.

Tesla, Alphabet Lead Packed Earnings Calendar Tesla's (TSLA) report, due Wednesday, comes amid headlines about analyst downgrades, declining sales, and executive departures at the EV maker, whose shares have slid close to 20% this year. UBS analysts recently said the company's shares were "fundamentally overvalued." The EV maker has reported weakening sales, especially in Europe, while recently unveiling its long-awaited robotaxi system.
