'Damian Lillard taught Cardi B how to hoop': Blazers star becomes latest feature on Grammy Winner's 'Cardi Tries' show

Portland Trail Blazers superstar Damian Lillard was seen taking some time and teaching fellow rapper Cardi B how to hoop.

Damian Lillard is one of the most cold-blooded killers in the NBA right now. His ability to take over games and lead his team through to the other side is beyond impressive. Apart from being Logo Lillard, Dame also is a part-time rapper.

Dame Dolla was recently seen taking some time off and teaching Cardi B how to play basketball. Cardi has no experience with the sport, and Dame was seen taking her through the basics.

Damian Lillard turns into Coach Dame D.O.L.L.A for Cardi B

Lillard did an amazing job coaching Cardi B. For someone who did not even know the basics of the sport, Dame had her making shots under the basket pretty soon. He started by showing her the basics – dribbling, footwork, passing, and then moved on to teach her how to shoot.

To wrap things up, the two played a good-old-fashioned game of HORSE. Dame’s team took the W there, as he shot a half-court shot to seal the game. In his spare time from basketball, Dame goes by his rapper name Dame D.O.L.L.A, which stands for Different On Levels the Lord Allows. The 5x Blazers All-Star has released two albums to date, with his debut album ‘the Letter O’ releasing in 2016.

Among professional ballers, Dame is often considered the best rapper. The Blazers have had a 2-2 start to the season, and Lillard has averaged 23 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.2 assists.
