Milwaukee Bucks star guard Damian Lillard has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable for Thursday’s Game 6 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the Indiana Pacers in Indianapolis.
Lillard sat out the last two games with a right Achilles injury for the Bucks, who trail 3-2 in the best-of-seven series. The eight-time All-Star averaged 32.3 points in the first three games of the series.
Two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo remained doubtful on the league’s official injury report as he deals with a calf injury sustained in an April 9 victory against the Boston Celtics.
Without the All-Stars in the lineup for Game 5, Khris Middleton and Bobby Portis scored 29 points apiece in Milwaukee’s 115-92 victory over Indiana on Tuesday.
