Damian Lillard shuts down an April Fools’ Day tweet from a Lakers fan account

Don’t know if you all know this, but today is April Fools day. With everything that is currently going on in our world, it’s super easy to forget — I know I definitely did.

Not everyone did, though. A Lakers fan account took full advantage of the day by tweeting that Lillard was unhappy with the Trail Blazers front office and wanted out of Portland. His preferred destination? Los Angeles, alongside LeBron James, Anthony Davis and the Lakers.

This tweet definitely looks pretty convincing if you’re just quickly scrolling down your timeline.

I mean, it has flame emojis and everything! What more could you ask for?

Lillard saw the tweet too, though, and shut everything down.

So much for that. Ah well. It’s not a WojBomb, obviously, but it definitely made for a good laugh.
