Now, a new report has been made that gives the Celtics reason for hope that Lillard could sign with the franchise. That report came from Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe. He has reported that Lillard has mutual interest with the team due to his friendship with Tatum.

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

The Celtics of course are on the lookout for ways to add cheap talent to their roster after paring down their cap hits.
