Former Weber State Wildcats point guard Damian Lillard was one of just 17 players listed as CBS Sports’ Bill Reiter placed the top players in the NBA into different tiers.
While he is ranked in level 3, Reiter speaks very highly of Lillard, saying, “other than Towns, Lillard is the most likely of these guys to someday crack that exclusive company. Might be the second-best point guard today, and is young and driven and with enough intangibles to keep improving at an exponential rate.”
