Damian Lillard Exits Game 4 with Non-Contact Leg Injury

Milwaukee Bucks star guard Damian Lillard exited Game 4 of the NBA Playoffs against the Indiana Pacers early in the first quarter after suffering a non-contact injury to his lower left leg. Lillard went down while chasing a rebound and immediately clutched the back of his left leg, raising concerns about a potentially severe injury, possibly involving his left Achilles tendon. He had to be helped off the court and was ruled out for the remainder of the game, having recorded only two assists and two rebounds at the time of his departure. Lillard had only recently returned to the lineup after missing significant time due to a blood clot in his right leg, making this setback particularly troubling for the Bucks. The incident has left Milwaukee fans and the organization anxiously awaiting further updates on his condition as the team trails Indiana in the playoff series. More information is expected as the situation develops.
