“Game is game" - Fans comically react to Damian Lillard going ballistic in GloRilla’s attendance

Fans reacted as Damian Lillard and GloRilla were at the T-Mobile Arena on Tuesday for the NBA Cup Finals. Lillard helped the Milwaukee Bucks to a 97-81 win over the OKC Thunder with the artist in attendance.

Lillard had an excellent start, scoring six points, including an impressive step-back corner 3-pointer.

Fans reacted to a clip of the rapper's presence in the NBA Cup :

“Game is game," one tweeted.

Another said:

“Dame going for 60. I don't blame thug. I get it.”

One added:

“Did you just hear her scream after that 3 lol”

Karamjihad215 couldn’t resist:

“We all know who she there for”

EyeSayMeme commented:

“I say boom boom boom!”

Damian Lillard didn't erupt for 60 points, but he did what was necessary to help his team win the championship. He took over the scoring when Giannis Antetokounmpo sat, orchestrating the offense with aplomb. The OKC Thunder defense couldn’t collapse on "The Greek Freak" because of Lillard.

Dame Time shot 6-for-12, including 5-for-10 from deep to keep the Oklahoma defense honest. GloRilla, who raved about Lillard’s shooting in the 2024 NBA All-Star game, had a front-row ticket to another efficient shotmaking display.

Lillard was also willing to play decoy when called for. He often caused chaos by using multiple screens only to whip a pass to an open teammate. The eight-time All-Star had four assists, but his playmaking impact was more than that.

GloRilla picks Steph Curry over Damian Lillard

After posing for photos with the NBA Cup, GloRilla was asked a few basketball questions about players. GloRilla warned the reporter not to be “messy” but was willing to get on with the interview.

When asked to choose between Steph Curry and Damian Lillard, the “Yeah Glo!” hitmaker stuttered and laughed before picking the Golden State Warriors superstar.

Over the last few questions, she honed in on Kobe Bryant over anybody else. GloRilla picked "The Black Mamba" over Michael Jordan, who many consider the greatest of all time.
