Damian Lillard Now Questionable For Friday Night
9 months agoMilwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (elbow) is questionable for Friday's showdown with the Los Angeles Lakers. The former Trail Blazer had 20 points and six assists on Wednesday night versus Golden State. But he's apparently now dealing with a right rib contusion, although details surrounding the injury are currently vague. The Bucks and the Lakers play late on Friday evening, so fantasy managers will take a chance by putting Lillard in their lineups. If he does get ruled out, Patrick Beverley would likely see a significant uptick in fantasy production. Additionally, Lillard's potential absence could mean more ball-handling work for Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles), assuming he plays, potentially resulting in a bump in usage.
