And in one viral post, Lillard is proclaimed to have signed with the Celtics. No, Damian Lillard did not sign with the Boston Celtics. That parody account, NBA Centel, intends to mimic real news possibilities but without real facts involved. As of July 4th morning, that post had been viewed more than one million times on X.

The Boston Celtics are one of the many teams that have reached out to Damian Lillard with some interest in signing him. He was surprisingly waived by the Milwaukee Bucks. Lillard will have a lot of choices to pick from when it comes to his next destination.

After parting ways with the Milwaukee Bucks, Damian Lillard might be headed even further east. The nine-time All-Star guard Lillard has mutual interest with a surprising team — the Boston Celtics. Adam Himmelsbach of the Boston Globe reported the news on Wednesday and noted that Lillard has respect for the Celtics organization and also a longtime friendship with Boston star Jayson Tatum.
