After a cryptic Instagram post following the team’s first-round exit at the hands of the Denver Nuggets, it’s become quite clear Lillard’s days of patiently waiting for this franchise to get him help are over.

It’s no wonder teams are already monitoring his situation, and every team should have an interest in acquiring a guy like Dame Lillard. Not all are in a position to actually make a compelling offer; Lillard would likely only entertain a move to a contender, and as much as it’d be in the Blazers’ hands, if they actually start entertaining offers, it’s hard to see them betraying him further by dumping him on some hopeless lottery team.

However, even if there’s been no inkling of a trade request yet these five teams should have their hands waiting on the phone with a ready-made offer for the second that day arrives.
