Damian Lillard Drops 23 Points in Preseason Loss to Warriors

Damian Lillard poured in a game-high 23 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 13-13 FT) alongside three assists and one rebound in 26 minutes during Friday's 128-118 preseason loss to Golden State. The veteran point guard scored 18 of his 23 points in the first half and looks fully healthy after sitting out all of last season recovering from a torn left Achilles. Portland's backcourt rotation includes Lillard, Ja Morant, Jrue Holiday, and Scoot Henderson.
