It was a shock to the Milwaukee Bucks when Damian Lillard was given a diagnosis of Deep Vein Thrombosis. The blood clots have him ruled out indefintiely. If Lillard is forced to miss time into the playoffs, the Bucks will have a much harder time making a deep run in the playoffs. They are a much better team when they have Lillard out there.

The Milwaukee Bucks now have a diagnosis for Damian Lillard – a blood clot. The team issued a statement Tuesday night saying the 34-year old point guard has a deep vein thrombosis in his right calf. Bucks beat writer Jim Owczarski also said, according to a league source, there is no timeline for Lillard to return to play.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard will likely be sidelined indefinitely, with the team announcing Tuesday night that he has deep vein thrombosis in his right calf and is taking blood-thinning medication.
