Damian Lillard's already difficult season came to an abrupt end on Sunday when the star guard went down with what was later diagnosed as an Achilles tear during Game 4 of the Milwaukee Bucks' playoff series vs. the Indiana Pacers. And while an Achilles injury is tough news for any athlete, it was a particularly brutal blow for the 34-year-old Lillard, who had just battled back from a bout of deep vein thrombosis to help his team in the postseason.
Considering his age and the severity of his latest injury, you'd be forgiven for thinking this might spell the beginning of the end for Lillard. But it sounds like Dame is ready to do everything he can to keep that from happening.
