Damian Lillard Injury Update
Damian Lillard, who plays for the Milwaukee Bucks, might play in the game against the Boston team on Tuesday, even though his left hip is sore. It's a bit worrying that he's only being added to the list of injured players on the day of the game, but it seems like he's still planning to play when they go against Milwaukee's next opponent, the Boston Celtics, at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time.
He's been doing pretty well this season, scoring about 24.4 points and making 7.1 assists per game. This is his first season with the Bucks after they traded for him from the Portland Trail Blazers in September. However, things haven't been going as smoothly as expected for Lillard and his teammate Giannis Antetokounmpo.
The Bucks are lagging behind the Boston Celtics by 13 games, which is not so good for them. They even lost to teams like the Washington Wizards and the Memphis Grizzlies recently, which was unexpected. The Bucks thought they would improve when they got Doc Rivers as their new head coach, but it hasn't really made a difference yet. So, it's really important for Lillard and Antetokounmpo to spend more time playing together before the playoffs start.
Damian Lillard Contract
Damian Lillard inked a deal with the Portland Trail Blazers that's worth a whopping $176,265,152 over four years. This means he's guaranteed to get all that money. His average yearly salary from this deal is $44,066,288. In the season 2023-24, Lillard is set to pocket a base salary of $45,640,084. That's also the amount that counts toward the team's salary cap, and if for some reason he leaves the team, that's the amount they'd still have to pay him.
