Come back together? American News: The Celtics are willing to give Lillard a number of years of contract, Tatum has been actively recruiting him

According to Celtic journalist Gary Washburn, the Celtics are willing to provide Lillard with a contract of several years.

"This nine-time All-Star player is not in a hurry to sign, but the Celtics are interested in providing Lillard with a multi-year contract so that he can return to the arena in the Celtics' jersey after he fully recovered in the 26-27 season. At that time, he will fight alongside Tatum, who is also injured, and launch a rush to the championship.

According to NBA sources, Tatum has been actively recruiting Lillard to join Boston, and the two have been teammates in the U.S. National Team. Because Lillard's previous injuries are likely to fail to play most of the next season, the market for this point guard is limited. It should be noted that Lillard's injury time is April 27 - 15 days earlier than Tatum's injury date."
