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

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (groin) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. After missing Saturday's road victory over the Atlanta Hawks for personal reasons, Lillard is now being listed as out with a strained right groin. The superstar guard's next opportunity to take the floor will arrive on the second half of Milwaukee's back-to-back on Wednesday versus the Memphis Grizzlies, and he should be deemed day-to-day until more is known about the injury. In Lillard's absence, veteran Patrick Beverley figures to be called upon for a second straight spot start at the one after joining the first unit against Atlanta. In three games as a starter for the Bucks this season, Beverley is averaging 12.0 points, 5.3 rebounds. 3.0 assists, 2.0 steals, and 2.3 threes and will be a great DFS budget play against a Wizards defense yielding the fourth-most fantasy points to point guards.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (personal) will be out of the lineup Saturday against Atlanta for personal reasons. Lillard left Thursday's game versus New Orleans for an undisclosed reason. However, the 33-year-old missing the contest isn't due to an injury. AJ Green, Patrick Beverley (wrist), Pat Connaughton will likely see an uptick in minutes. The next chance for the guard to play will come on Tuesday versus the Washington Wizards.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) and guard Damian Lillard (rib) are available ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. As expected, both players have been cleared after looking fine during their pregame routine. Neither player should be restricted or limited at all during this game. Malik Beasley, Jae Crowder, and Brook Lopez should join them in the starting five. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get both players into their lineups on Friday.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (rib) is expected to suit up ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The superstar guard was listed as questionable coming into this game but appears to be trending in the right direction. It sounds like the organization plans to have Lillard go through his pregame warmup before making a final decision. If he sits, Patrick Beverley is expected to see an expanded role. Beverley would be an interesting streaming option if he moves into the starting five. Fantasy managers will have to check back ahead of tip-off for the final update on his status.
