The Boston Celtics are interested in signing injured veteran guard Damian Lillard, and the feeling is reportedly mutual. But would the match make sense?

Lillard is currently sidelined with an Achilles tear. It's the same injury that has Jayson Tatum sitting out the upcoming season. Should the Celtics acquire Lillard, two of their 15 roster spots will be committed to talent with long-term injuries.

Despite rumors that the Boston Celtics were interested, free agent guard Damian Lillard is signing with the Portland Trail Blazers.

There’s some question marks for Lillard’s fit on the Celtics, given he needs the ball in his hands to be somewhat effective, but if he’d be willing to come off the bench, which again, doesn't sound too likely, it'd be intriguing to see what Boston could do on the offensive side of the basketball at all times throughout a game.

Damian Lillard and the Celtics are reportedly eyeing each other and a championship run in 2026-27, as both sides explore a new future.

While some are wary of a potential signing of former Bucks guard Damian Lillard, others see it as a potentially near-ideal paring.

The most recent Boston Celtics free agency rumors are that the team is going to try to land a future Hall of Fame point guard. Could this star's recruitment help them seal the deal?

I just was told that they're communicating and Tatum is recruiting. I mean, Tatum is the face of the franchise. So, yeah, you're told he's recruiting. I don't know if they're like FaceTiming every day or they're on Snapchat and sharing videos and you know,

According to Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe, Jayson Tatum is playing a significant role in recruiting Lillard to the TD Garden. Tatum is also out due to an Achilles tear, but it would appear that he's already planning for his return to the rotation, either toward the end of the 25-26 season or at the start of the 26-27 campaign.
