Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum is attempting to recruit Damian Lillard in free agency, according to Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe.

With Simons still available, it's also been established that the Celtics are interested in Simons' former Trail Blazers teammate, Damian Lillard. ClutchPoint's Brett Siegel revealed that though Lillard will take his time making his decision, he believes the Celtics will be his next team for the time being.

The Celtics were previously rumored to be a possible suitor for Lillard earlier in July. The post Jayson Tatum reportedly a part of Celtics’ efforts to land Damian Lillard appeared first on Boston.com.
