Damian Lillard Probable For Thursday's Action
2 days agoMilwaukee Bucks point guard Damian Lillard (groin) is considered probable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is managing a groin issue, but Lillard has made nine consecutive appearances and is expected to remain in the lineup on Thursday. Lillard was off form last time out against the Indiana Pacers, shooting only 4-for-14 from the field to finish with 15 points. He will attempt to bounce back against a Lakers that will be without LeBron James (groin) and may also play on Thursday without Luka Doncic (ankle), who is considered questionable for the game.
