Continuing to give back to Portland, Blazers All-Star guard Damian Lillard held a sneaker giveaway for local youth on Monday. This was no normal sneaker giveaway though as Lillard announced it himself via his Twitter account and then drove the U-Haul truck that was carrying the kicks to Portland’s Irving Park.
That’s right, Lillard actually drove a U-Haul to his sneaker giveaway.
Maybe the best part of this: Dame drove the U-Haul himself! pic.twitter.com/Ky2rqNAWr7

As you would expect, Lillard quickly ran out of sneakers but he then signed countless autographs and interacted with the large group of kids from the back of the truck.
He ran out of shoes to give away so now he’s just signing autographs. pic.twitter.com/4LWqalmF16

Lillard may have finished fourth overall in MVP voting but in Portland, he’s clearly the real MVP.
