In addition to changing franchises during the offseason, Damian Lillard is also experiencing major upheavals in his private life since he is on the verge of divorcing his wife. On this subject, he also submitted a rather astonishing request to the judge when a hearing was to take place at the end of November.

Once again, the Bucks really scared themselves last night. Opposed against the Pistons, they only won by a short lead (120-118) while losing Giannis Antetokounmpo in the third quarter, the double MVP being expelled for two technical fouls. Fortunately for Adrian Griffin’s men, a certain Damian Lillard and his 34 points allowed them to keep the advantage:

It was a more than solid performance from the leader and it came at the best of times. Because since her arrival from the Blazers, Dame D.O.L.L.A has been blowing hot and cold a bit and has been singled out for her mistakes in defense. Shining in attack like this will bring him comfort… especially since his private life is not currently the easiest either.

Lillard refuses to miss a game for his divorce

In addition to his departure from Portland, Lillard is also in the process of divorcing his ex-partner Kay’La Lillard, who is the mother of his three children and from whom he has been separated for several months. Except that if the case drags on in court, it’s also a bit of the superstar’s fault. The media RadarOnline.com made a strange revelation on the subject recently:

An Oregon judge granted the Milwaukee Bucks point guard’s request to postpone a Nov. 24 hearing because he is scheduled to play in Wisconsin against the Washington Wizards. “It is ordered that the motion to reschedule the show cause hearing date from November 24, 2023 is granted, with the hearing date rescheduled to an undetermined date,” said Judge Todd L’s order. .Van Rysselberghe.

Categorically refusing to miss the call for his family, the guard therefore does everything he can to be able to appear before the judge on a date when he will not play. We imagine that this will please Daims fans who see him ready to give everything for the franchise, but be careful not to repeat this type of request too much. Not sure in fact that it plays much in his favor in the matter…

Damian Lillard wants a divorce, but not just any time. Out of the question for him to miss a match this season, even if it means postponing the hearing with his ex-partner. A funny story which, however, also shows to what extent the leader absolutely wants to shine under his new colors, in a sense…
