Damian Lillard Won't Play On Wednesday, As Expected
2 years agoPortland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) won't play on Wednesday against Cleveland. The veteran re-strained his right calf during the meeting with Utah and is expected to be out for up to two weeks. Lillard has averaged 26.3 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals this season, so replacing him will be nearly impossible. However, Shaedon Sharpe, averaging 8.2 points in five starts this season, will do his best. That said, Sharpe has struggled shooting this season, something category managers should consider before adding him to the roster.
