Damian Lillard's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Damian Lillard (groin) was able to practice on Wednesday in a limited capacity and is expected to get a full session under his belt on Friday. Lillard is trying to get ready for Game 1 of the team's first-round series against Indiana, which starts on Sunday night. It's unlikely that we will see Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) in the lineup at the weekend, and Lillard's unavailability would be another huge blow for Milwaukee. However, the star guard appears to be trending in the right direction. If he's cleared to play, we should see fireworks from Lillard, as he'll be expected to do a lot more without Antetokounmpo. Lillard averaged a big 34-point, 10-assist double-double during his last playoff campaign in 2021.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (adductor) is considered probable for Sunday's match-up with the Orlando Magic. The 33-year-old is expected to return to action on Sunday following his absence from Milwaukee's last game due to left adductor soreness. The Bucks will happily welcome their star point guard back into the lineup, as a win on Sunday would clinch the second seed in the Eastern Conference. With superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo remaining on the sidelines, Lillard will need to carry a heavier load.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The star guard was considered as doubtful coming into this game, but the team will ultimately hold him out. This is not good news for the Bucks as this team is already shorthanded. The expectation is that the Bucks will use a committee approach to fill the void left by Lillard. Patrick Beverley, Pat Connaughton, and Malik Beasley figure to all see more playing time. Out of the three, Beverley has the most upside in terms of streaming appeal.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (groin) is listed as doubtful for Friday's tilt against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Lillard missed three games due to a strained right groin last week, and he's now dealing with soreness in his left adductor. With Giannis Antetokounmpo's (calf) regular season finished, the Bucks should have a ton of vacated usage on Friday. Patrick Beverley figures to steer the offense in the starting lineup against the Thunder, with Khris Middleton (ankle), who is off the injury report, likely handling more ball-handling responsibilities. Beverley is averaging 11.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.1 steals, and 2.3 three-pointers in six games as a starter for Milwaukee in 2023-24, and Middleton is averaging an efficient 17.2 points, 5.3 dimes, 3.8 boards, 1.0 swipes, and 2.3 threes in 24.8 minutes through six games without Lillard this year.

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Damian Lillard (hip) is good to go for Tuesday's big matchup against Boston. He was a late addition to the injury report on Tuesday with a probable tag, but Bucks head coach Doc Rivers has said Lillard will play. Patrick Beverley (ankle) is also back, which means a lot fewer minutes for Pat Connaughton. Lillard faces a backcourt full of defensive talent on Tuesday, but he has previously played well against the Celtics this season, averaging 26.7 points with 42.9 percent shooting from deep.
