Nice work Julie! I really hope Damian gets a chance to make a huge mark in this game. It seems like the type of competition where he can have a great showing and maybe even come out of it as the MVP.
Did you notice that all but one of Team Hill's team are second year players? I hope that means good things as I will be rooting for that team!

I was watching the dedicated feed to Lillard, and it was showing him talking to McMillian. That is really interesting.
