Damian Lillard Shares His Current Standing With GloRilla
During a recent media day for the Bucks, Lillard answered questions from various reporters. One, in particular, asked whether Lillard was giving GloRilla’s advance any “action.”
“Uh,” Lillard initially responded between chuckles. “Nah, I ain’t, um… You know, I keep my personal life personal, and I let it be that.

Here’s What Happened After GloRilla Flirted With The NBA Player
As The Shade Room previously reported, GloRilla and Damian Lillard posed for a photo after an NBA game in February. To note, Damian filed for divorce from his estranged wife, Kay’La, in October 2023, per The Shade Room.
After flicking it up alongside the NBA player, GloRilla took to X to shoot her shot. Additionally, she shared a message asking if he “belonged” to anyone.
“Who n***a dis is? Cause I want him,” she wrote before adding. “Whoever she is can’t whoop me so I really dgaf”
The following month, Damian was asked about Glo’s message. However, he kept his response brief.
Then, in April, Kay’La publicly shared her reaction to GloRilla being arrested for DUI, per The Shade Room.
Kay’La seemingly poking fun at Glo’s run-in with the law prompted the rapper to react.
