PORTLAND, OR – MAY 2: Damian Lillard #0 of the Portland Trail Blazers celebrates with Robin Lopez #42 of the Portland Trail Blazers after hitting a last second shot to win the game in the fourth quarter of Game Six of the Western Conference Quarterfinals against the Houston Rockets during the 2014 NBA Playoffs at the Moda Center on May 2, 2014 in Portland, Oregon.

Damian Lillard gets his All-Star nod

It looks like Damian Lillard will get his All-Star nod after all. After it was announced that Blake Griffin would miss the All-Star Game with a staph infection, commissioner Adam Silver got to choose another player to replace him. Who did he go with? Damian Lillard of course!

And maybe now we won’t get angry messages on Lillard’s social media about getting “snubbed.” Although, with our luck he may get mad for needing a little extra help to get in.
