Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard could be on the move soon, and the Miami Heat are the potential favorite to land the All-NBA star.

If Lillard is giving hints about where he wants to end up, look no further than the song playing in the background of his Instagram Live. Lillard went live with “Miami” by Will Smith playing in the background.

Damian Lillard Has A Major Decision To Make This Offseason

Lillard and the Blazers have reached a fork in the road of their relationship.

Lillard informed the front office that he wants to remain in Portland if the team can build a championship contender. At 32, Lillard wants to play with veterans on a title contender instead of rookies on a rebuilding team.

In the weeks leading up to the draft, Portland considered trading the No. 3 pick for a player to play alongside Lillard. However, the Blazers elected to keep the pick and take Scoot Henderson, a talented prospect who plays the same position as Lillard.

Shortly after the draft, Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes, the leading voice for all news surrounding Dame, reported that Lillard has not had “any communication” with the Blazers about free agency or his future with the team.
