    Damian Lillard's hot form has continued as the Milwaukee Bucks superstar delivered the hammer blow in a huge NBA comeback win over his former team Portland

    Damian Lillard's hot form has continued as the Milwaukee Bucks superstar delivered the hammer blow in a huge NBA comeback win over his former team Portland


    The Trail Blazers led by as much as 26 points early in the third period before Lillard - facing Portland for the first time since requesting a trade over the summer - and Giannis Antetokounmpo spearheaded a dramatic turnaround in the Bucks' 108-102 home victory.

    It's the largest deficit overcome by a winning team this season AS Lillard, Antetokounmpo and Bobby Portis combined for 31 of the Bucks' 33 final-quarter points to Portland's 14.
