Following an MRI to assess the severity of his Achilles injury, star guard Damian Lillard's availability for Game 4 of the playoff series between the Milwaukee Bucks and the Indiana Pacers is in question. Coach Doc Rivers revealed that Lillard, who is currently in a walking boot, displayed signs of discomfort during the Bucks' Game 3 loss to Indiana, where they now trail 2-1.
The situation with Lillard also brings into focus the potential absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has been sidelined due to a calf injury sustained towards the end of the regular season. While there is a possibility that Antetokounmpo may be cleared for Game 4, Rivers emphasized that a final decision will be made after a rigorous workout session.
