In terms of the most elite scoring threats in the NBA today, you need not look further than Milwaukee Bucks superstar Damian Lillard. Not only is the seven-time All-Star capable of exploding on offense on any given night, but this man has also earned the reputation for being one of the most clutch players in the NBA today.
Dame’s 45-point season-high explosion against the Detroit Pistons on Saturday is living proof of the former, while his recent 32-foot overtime game-winner against the Sacramento Kings is an undeniable testament to his clutch gene.
Milwaukee Bucks’ Damian Lillard Reveals Favorite Way to Score
In a recent interview with Bally Sports Wisconsin, Lillard was asked about the favorite way he scores. The 33-year-old has an exceptional talent of getting to the rim, and he’s had his fair share of poster dunks as well, especially during his younger years. However, it comes as no surprise that Dame’s favorite way to get his points is by doing so beyond the arc:
“Threes,” Dame responded with a chuckle. “Threes in people’s face.”

That’s savage. Then again, it fits so perfectly with the way Lillard operates. This man has ice in his veins and he just loves draining those threes with defenders in front of him. Just ask the Sacramento Kings.
