    Found this on reddit. Gives me the warm and fuzzies

    Damian Lillard had to tell a kid no for a picture then felt bad about it.. So he told him to meet him at Bridgeport Mall and made up for it.

    You can pretty much see the entire story from these tweets

    First Tweet: https://twitter.com/Dame_Lillard/status/362764417315766273
    Kid responds: https://twitter.com/SArdestani6/status/362766525511380994
    Dame responds: https://twitter.com/Dame_Lillard/status/362768175865135105
    This happens: https://twitter.com/SArdestani6/status/362782637422690305
    Dame follows through and makes this kids whole life: https://twitter.com/Dame_Lillard/status/362792635510972416

    He told the kid to just wait till he was finished shopping. I see no problem with that. Let guys like DL be able to go out in public without being hounded for auto's and pics.

    Gang sign aside, that was pretty cool. I wonder what that means?

    Van Buren Boys was funny, BTW, well done

    In my opinion 15 year old kids should get a pass to ask almost anytime. Kid seemed cool about it anyway, didn't appear to be hounding.
