Why did ESPN doctor a 3-year-old Damian Lillard interview to make it look like it came from his Bucks debut?

Oct 28, 2023

Running the social media accounts of ESPN has never sounded like an easy job, but it appears the Worldwide Leader in Sports went to bizarre lengths to churn out a video supposedly from Damian Lillard's debut with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Lillard made a strong first impression Thursday in Milwaukee, scoring 39 points — a record for a Bucks debut — with eight rebounds, four assists and zero turnovers one month after the three-team blockbuster trade that sent him over from the Portland Trail Blazers.

There were many moments during and after the game ripe for posting on social media, including his game-sealing 3-pointer and his postgame quotes breaking down the play.
