Damian Lillard Joining Timberwolves After Bucks Release Would Be a Problem
Damian Lillard Joining Timberwolves After Bucks Release Would Be a Problem originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Minnesota Timberwolves are a team that could use a replacement point guard, and one has recently become available to interested and patient teams. On Tuesday morning, the Milwaukee Bucks officially released NBA All-Star Damian Lillard amid his recovery from a torn Achilles tendon injury. Advertisement With the team waiving Lillard, they stretched $113 million remaining on his contract over five years to acquire free agent Myles Turner from the Indiana Pacers. ESPN's NBA insider Shams Charania was first to report the news. Lillard, a nine-time All-Star, averaged 24.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 7.1 assists per game in his two seasons on the Bucks. While the team failed to return to championship glory with him, he has been an impressive player when at his top form. Former Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Ruszkowski-Imagn Images The Timberwolves have made several roster moves recently, primarily through the NBA Draft and by re-signing key players Naz Reid and Julius Randle. More recently, they've lost Nickeil Alexander-Walker, Luka Garza, and Josh Minott. Advertisement Many fans are still hoping the team will address what is a glaring issue at point guard. Mike Conley isn't getting any younger and is no longer playing at the same high level he did in his previous days. Many fans on Reddit's Timberwolves subreddit expressed interest in potentially adding Lillard to the roster to address the issue. "Just In time for the playoffs. I'd take Dame coming off Achilles over Conley putting up 4/2/2 statlines in 25 mins played," one fan commented. "Lillard to the wolves is very intriguing but i'm curious to what a contract for him would even look like," a commenter said. Advertisement "If Lillard wasn't injured and we had cap space, I'd sign him," another fan commented on the thread. The former Bucks guard is one of three star players to have suffered an Achilles injury during the 2025 NBA Playoffs. Along with Lillard, the Boston Celtics' Jayson Tatum and the Indiana Pacers' Tyrese Haliburton also went down with this brutal injury. It typically takes at least a full season to recover, meaning these players may or may not be ready by the 2025-26 postseason. By the time they returned, it would matter whether the teams they were on were even contending, let alone the uncertainty of whether they would play as well as they had previously when they got on the court. Advertisement Lillard, 36, would likely command a high contract for whichever team tries to add him, unless he opts for a lower amount so he can play briefly for a championship contender. According to Hoops Hype, he earned $48,787,676 last year and $329,998,76 for his career. And while Minnesota could gamble on a star like Lillard, it seems smarter to pursue another option for their point guard who is currently healthy and less expensive, as the rest of the roster appears solid and ready to contend again. As of this writing, less expensive point guard free agents available include Dante Exum, Delon Wright, and Monte Morris. Potentially better options include Spencer Dinwiddie and former NBA Rookie of the Year Malcolm Brogdon. And don't forget about Rob Dillingham, a young developing guard that the team seemingly trusts in for the future. The Timberwolves traded with the San Antonio Spurs at last year's draft to add Dillingham to the roster, and he could be who they are banking on to emerge as Conley's replacement.
