Apr 25, 2025; Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA; Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (0) reacts after making a basket against the Indiana Pacers in the second half during game three of first round for the 2024 NBA Playoffs at Fiserv Forum. Mandatory Credit: Michael McLoone-Imagn Images Milwaukee Bucks star guard Damian Lillard exited Sunday night’s home playoff game against the Indiana Pacers with a potentially serious lower left leg injury.
Lillard was hurt while seeking a long offensive rebound and he fell to the floor while tapping the ball forward shortly before the midway point of the first quarter. He immediately grabbed for his lower left leg and was unable to get up.
Milwaukee’s Brook Lopez committed a foul with 5:57 left in the quarter to stop play and trainers then attended to Lillard. He eventually was helped off the court while keeping his left foot from touching the floor.
The Bucks formally ruled out Lillard early in the second quarter. He was scoreless in six minutes and missed both his shots. He collected two rebounds and two assists.
Lillard, 34, just returned from having a blood clot in his right leg. He missed the final 14 games of the regular season and the first contest of this playoff series against the Pacers.
Lillard averaged 10.5 points and shot just 24 percent (6 of 25) from the field in his first two appearances of this series. The Bucks trail 2-1 in the series entering Sunday’s home game.
The nine-time All-Star averaged 24.9 points, 7.1 assists and 4.7 rebounds in 58 regular-season games.

Browns declining Kenny Pickett’s fifth-year option after drafting Shedeur Sanders, Dillon Gabriel, per report
Getty Images The Cleveland Browns quarterback room became the most interesting quarterback room in the NFL following the 2025 NFL Draft, as they selected former Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel in the third round and then followed that up by selecting Colorado's Shedeur Sanders in the fifth round after his unprecedented fall. General manager Andrew Berry had already added quarterbacks Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett this offseason, but we learned Monday that both will be on one-year deals.The Browns are declining Pickett's fifth-year option, per Cleveland.com. As a first-round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022, Pickett had a 2026 club option that would have paid him what is projected to be a fully-guaranteed $22,117,000 if picked up, per Over The Cap. That's a big chunk of fully-guaranteed change, so it should come as no surprise Cleveland is going to decline it. Why […]
