It’s no secret Damian Lillard had a disappointing finish to his first season with the Milwaukee Bucks. The thing is, the All-Star point guard may take it out on the rest of the NBA when the upcoming campaign starts soon.
Just recently, Lillard is pushing his limits this offseason by engaging in a grueling 38-hour workout alongside former Navy SEAL David Goggins. This extraordinary training session began at 11 PM on a Sunday and continued until 1 PM the following Tuesday, featuring ten distinct workouts, including the point guard’s own basketball drills.
Goggins shared the experience on social media, showcasing the NBA star’s determination to bounce back after a challenging previous season. The eight-time All-Star reflected on the mental toughness required to endure such an intense regimen, stressing the significance of perseverance and resilience.
Lillard’s commitment comes as he aims to regain peak form after facing personal challenges that affected his performance last year. Head Coach Doc Rivers has expressed confidence that Lillard will return in optimal shape for the upcoming NBA season.
