Following an All-Star caliber season, Damian Lillard tore his Achilles tendon in Game 4 against the Pacers, knocking him out for the rest of the playoffs and possibly the 2025-26 season.

Milwaukee Bucks All-Star guard Damian Lillard is staring down one of the most uncertain and worrying futures in the NBA.

Lillard stumbled while trying to grab a rebound at the top of the key, though he managed to tip it off to the corner before he crashed down to the court. As Lillard fell, though, he immediately reached for his left ankle, clearly in a lot of pain.
