In a devastating turn of events, Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard suffered what appears to be a serious injury just minutes into the club's 129-103 loss to the Indiana Pacers in Game 4 on Sunday. Lillard stumbled while attempting to secure a rebound with 5:57 remaining in the first quarter, and was helped off the floor by members of the Bucks staff. Milwaukee is fearing a torn Achilles in his left leg.
Fans were heartbroken by Lillard's injury, knowing what the Bucks star overcame to return to the playoff series after missing the final 14 regular season games with deep vein thrombosis in his right leg. After the contest, Lillard's teammate Giannis Antetokounmpo shared an inspiring message for the nine-time All-Star.
