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

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (elbow) is questionable for Friday's showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers. The former Trail Blazer had 20 points and six assists on Wednesday night versus Golden State. But he's apparently now dealing with a right rib contusion, although details surrounding the injury are currently vague. The Bucks and the Lakers play late on Friday evening, so fantasy managers will take a chance by putting Lillard in their lineups. If he does get ruled out, Patrick Beverley would likely see a significant uptick in fantasy production. Additionally, Lillard's potential absence could mean more ball-handling work for Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles), assuming he plays, potentially resulting in a bump in usage.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard protected his three-point contest crown on Saturday's festivities, and followed it up with an MVP performance in the All-Star Game on Sunday. In the 211-186 victory for the East, the veteran point guard finished with 39 points, six assists, three rebounds, and one steal while shooting 14-for-26 from the floor and 11-for-23 from deep. As usual, there wasn't much defense being played in this game, but Lillard broke out of his shooting slump in a big way. Hopefully, this carries over into the final stretch of the season since the Bucks have gone 3-7 since Doc Rivers took over the team.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is good to go on Thursday night in Memphis. Lillard has been bothered by a left ankle injury over the last few weeks. However, he only missed a few games and has been available for the team's previous three contests. The multi-time All-Star has seen a dip on the scoring end this season. Yet, Lillard remains a top fantasy option in any format, and he could be in for a big night versus a Memphis team with 10 players listed on the injury report.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is expected to play on Thursday versus Memphis. The former Trail Blazer continues to deal with an ankle injury, an issue that's bothered him for at least a few weeks. However, he hasn't missed much time because of it, and Thursday night shouldn't be any different. Lillard is averaging 24.6 points this year, a considerable drop from last season. But he's still playing at an All-Star level, so fantasy managers will take what they can get as long as he stays healthy enough to play.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is expected to suit up on Monday after receiving a probable status for their game against the Denver Nuggets. The star point guard returned from a two-game absence on Friday to the tune of 26 points, eight assists, four rebounds, and three steals across 29 minutes. He'll remain cemented in fantasy lineups as long as he's healthy enough to be on the court. So far, in his first season with the Bucks, Lillard is averaging 25.0 points, 6.8 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 42.7% from the floor. Some of his numbers have taken a hit, but he's been growing more comfortable playing alongside another superstar talent.
