At this point, fans of the Miami Heat are hoping to hear something – anything – about a trade for Damian Lillard.
Everyone knows that the Portland Trail Blazers star wants to move to the Heat but no definitive deal has come together.
There is now a growing chance that Lillard never becomes a member of the Heat despite his wishes.
Lillard, who is also a rapper, released a new album and it’s received a lot of attention online – including from fellow NBA stars.
In fact, Heat icon Bam Adebayo posted an image of Lillard’s album cover with the caption, “Wassup Bwaaa.”
That typically wouldn’t garner too much attention but then Lillard responded to Adebayo’s post with, “Wasup wit ya bwaaaaa.”
As Heat Nation said on Twitter, it seems like these two players are “teasing” the fans.

Surely, both Adebayo and Lillard knew that their interaction was going to gain a bunch of attention from writers, fans, and NBA analysts.
It shows how close their friendship is and how well they get along.
That obviously leads people to believe they’d be great teammates together.
In fact, reports say that one of the major reasons why Lillard wants to play in Miami is because of Adebayo.
The two played together for Team USA years ago and grew close during that time, according to reports.
Now that Lillard has grown tired of playing for Portland, he wants to team up with a friend.
That makes Miami the perfect destination for him.
However, the chances of that happening are dwindling as time goes on.
Adebayo and Lillard can comment on each others’ social media posts all the time but that doesn’t make any deal with Portland more likely.
