Blazers owner Paul Allen passed away tragically Monday due to complications of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Allen, who passed away at age 65, wore many hats as a philanthropist and owner of the Seattle Seahawks and Portland Trail Blazers. The Blazers will honor Allen for the 2018-19 season with a patch on their jersey.

Earlier this week, All-Star point guard Damian Lillard spoke with reverence on his relationship with the late Blazers owner. With the help of Shoe Designer Kickstradomis, Lillard is paying his own tribute with special designed kicks for the Blazers home opener.
