Raising Damian Lillard

Imagine if your kid laid out all of his goals and dreams when he was just 13 years old. And made every one of them happen. Imagine if he said he was going to do it all for you, so you could stop working and enjoy life. Imagine if he loved music, and started rapping -- about you. Imagine if most of the kids he lived around were into drugs and gangs and getting into trouble. But your kid kept his head down, worked his tail off, and made good. Imagine raising Damian Lillard. Gina Johnson tells what it was like to bring up the intense, gifted man-child who quietly predicted his own superstardom -- yet remains one of the humblest stars in the NBA today.
