Damian Lillard left Game 4 of the Indiana Pacers vs. Milwaukee Bucks playoff series midway through the first quarter after suffering an apparent right leg injury.
He fell to the court while chasing a long rebound and didn't get up until Brook Lopez committed a foul on the Pacers' next play with 5:57 remaining. He was immediately taken to the locker room.
Chris Haynes reported Lillard will not return the rest of the game: "Injury potentially severe," he posted on X.
Lillard missed the last month of the regular season with a blood clot in his right leg, but the Bucks won their final eight regular-season games to earn the No. 5 seed in the Eastern Conference.
Lillard returned to the lineup in Game 2 of the series. He averaged 10.5 points and 6.0 assists, including18.8% 3-pointers, in Games 2 and 3. In Game 4, he was 0-of-2 shooting with 2 rebounds and 2 assists.
