The Portland Trail Blazers are reportedly "not impressed" with the Miami Heat's trade package for superstar Damian Lillard.
After requesting a trade to the Trail Blazers over the weekend, Lillard named the Miami Heat as the only team he wanted to play for.
"One thing so far Portland, I'm told, is not impressed with what Miami has to offer them," ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski said.
Portland has started listening to various offers from many teams around the league, with some of those proposals considered serious. Others were just checking in about their "potential asking price" for the NBA 75 member.
Wojnarowski added that the Blazers are focused on getting the maximum value they can get for their superstar.

Trail Blazers not interested in Tyler Herro
As much as possible, the 2023 NBA Finals runners-up would like to build a trade through Tyler Herro instead of Bam Adebayo or Caleb Martin.
However, the Blazers are not interested in taking up another guard in Herro, with their surplus of backcourt players such as 2023 Draft 2nd overall pick Scoot Henderson, lottery pick Shaedon Sharpe, and Anfernee Simons.
The Blazers would prefer Herro to go to a third team in a possible Lillard to-Miami transaction. Talks about a fourth team joining the picture have also emerged.
Herro's four-year, $130 million extension with the Heat kicks off this upcoming season.
