Highly motivated, highly underrated, the adidas Platform CLN Womens Trainers “Yellow Tape” draws from Dame Lillard’s trainer Chris Farr and the Portland star’s workout regimen. Taping off the court with yellow tape originals a pre-draft workout in front of scouts in Oakland, the tactic left an impact on both Dame and the on-lookers.

“We actually roped off the court with yellow tape after his pre-draft workout in Oakland with NBA scouts. I knew they had never seen a workout like that originals but the amazing thing is he still wanted to keep going – he didn’t want to leave any doubt behind,” Farr said. “I always keep a crumple of yellow tape in my bag and when I give it to Dame, he understands it’s the ultimate reward.

“The idea behind yellow tape is that you all see where he’s at today but for us, it’s a reminder of the struggle and the beginning of his journey,” Farr explained. “People need to understand it’s more than just a workout. He was unwanted by colleges and couldn’t play on top AAU teams. He needed adversity to give him a reason to accomplish all that he has. This is how yellow tape began.”
