Milwaukee Bucks' star guard Damian Lillard underwent an MRI to assess the extent of his Achilles injury following the team's playoff game against the Indiana Pacers. Coach Doc Rivers expressed uncertainty about Lillard's availability for Game 4, stating that the results of the test were pending. Lillard was seen wearing a walking boot on his right foot, indicating the seriousness of the injury.
During the previous game, Lillard visibly struggled with a left knee twist caused by an incident with Pacers' forward Pascal Siakam. Despite returning to play and contributing 28 points and eight assists, Lillard disclosed post-game that he had also aggravated his Achilles tendon late in the match.
