Jayson Tatum recently sat down for an interview with Bleacher Report’s Taylor Rooks, and Tatum asked her if she thinks Kyrie Irving is an NBA superstar, to which she agreed. However, things got a little more controversial when Tatum asked the same about Damian Lillard.
Rooks then responded to Tatum's question, stating, "I think that Damian has all of the superstar qualities, but it’s hard to put him in it in this moment because of…he just, like, needs a little more. But obviously, like, he has that in him."
When Tatum questioned what Rooks meant when she said that Damian "needs a little more," she clarified, "I mean he’s gotta win. He’s gotta get there. Like, to me that’s some of it." Their comments led to a trending conversation on Twitter, with many people not understanding Rooks' viewpoint, as Lillard is a six-time NBA All-Star, and a member of the league’s recent 75th-anniversary team.
