Damian Lillard Out for Bucks Due to Torn Left Achilles in Eastern Conference First Round Playoffs

Damian Lillard will not play for the Milwaukee Bucks against the Indiana Pacers on April 29, 2025. He is out due to a torn left Achilles. This injury comes after he had been dealing with right calf issues earlier this season, including deep vein thrombosis.

Lillard has played 57 games this regular season, averaging 24.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 7.0 assists per game. His absence may affect players like Kevin Porter Jr., who could see more time at point guard. The Bucks are 1-3 in the postseason games Lillard has played so far.
