The Milwaukee Bucks are hurting right now. With Giannis Antetokounmpo inactive, they must get a herculean effort from their other superstar, Damian Lillard, if they are going to vanquish the Indiana Pacers in the NBA Playoffs. Alas, the star point guard could be dealing with his own health concerns.

Lillard suffered what looked to be an ankle injury when Pascal Siakam stepped on the back of his heel, via ClutchPoints. He limped off the court and eventually headed to the locker room. Luckily, the 33-year-old returned to action at the start of the second quarter. Bucks fans are holding their breath, fearful that any setback could be their official postseason death warrant.
