Tatum recruits Lillard! Celtics are willing to give a multi-year contract: Target to win the championship in the 26-27 season

According to Celtic journalist Gary Washburn, Tatum has been actively recruiting Lillard, and the Celtics are willing to provide Lillard with a multi-year contract.

Gary Washburn reported that nine-time All-Star Lillard is not in a hurry to sign, but the Celtics are interested in providing Lillard with a multi-year contract so that he can return to the arena in the Celtics' gown after he fully recovered in the 26-27 season. At that time, he will fight side by side with Tatum, who is also injured, and launch a rush to the championship.

According to NBA sources, Tatum has been actively recruiting Lillard to join Boston. Since Lillard suffered an Achilles tendon injury, he is likely to be unable to play most of next season, the market conditions of the point guard are restricted.

It is worth mentioning that Lillard was injured on April 27, which is 15 days earlier than Tatum's injury date; in this year's playoffs, Lillard suffered a torn Achilles tendon, while Tatum suffered a rupture of Achilles tendon, and they both suffered a major Achilles tendon injury.

Previously, the Bucks used extended clauses to cut Lillard and paid Lillard $113 million in five years. Lillard has now recovered from his free life and is in the recovery period of his Achilles tendon injury.

Due to the ruptured Achilles tendon of Tatum, he may miss all the games in the new season. Therefore, the Celtics cleaned up the lineup this summer and sent away the two main players Porzingis and Holiday through trades. The new season is likely to be bad, and the goal is to the 2026-27 season.

Lillard is now 34 years old. He has played for the Trail Blazers and the Bucks for 13 years. He has played in a total of 900 regular season games, and has averaged 25.1 points, 4.3 rebounds and 6.7 assists per game in 36 minutes. Which team will Lillard wear in the future to continue his NBA career? Let's wait and see.
