Damian Lillard will work out privately for the Raptors Tuesday afternoon.
A 6-foot-3 point guard out of Weber State, Lillard is eager to prove he can run an NBA team.
“I know I can,” Lillard said. “Playing at Weber State and our offense, they needed me to score points, for us to be successful, I had to score points and I’m willing to do whatever I need to do to win games.
“In the NBA, I’ll be surrounded by NBA level players and it’ll be more likely for me to make plays for other guys and I won’t be such a dominant offensive player. I won’t have to do as much offensively.”
Toronto owns the No. 8 selection in the June 28 draft.
