Damian Lillard has had some amazing moments in the playoffs in his career, including his game-winner against the Rockets to clutch the series and the memorable game-winning buzzer-beater to send the Oklahoma City Thunder home and many more games where he’s scoring tremendously.

Here’s a list of players who could arguably be better than Lillard in the playoffs:

  • LeBron James

  • Stephen Curry

  • Kevin Durant

  • Kawhi Leonard

  • Nikola Jovic

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo

  • Devin Booker (based on the last two years in the playoffs)

  • Luka Doncic

  • Anthony Davis

We will see how Dame performs in the playoffs if he gets traded to Miami or somewhere else or winds up staying in Portland, assuming his team makes the playoffs.
