The Milwaukee Bucks will be without Damian Lillard indefinitely after he suffered deep vein thrombosis, a blood clot, in his right calf.

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.

In a blockbuster 2023 offseason gamble, the Milwaukee Bucks traded All-Defensive combo guard Jrue Holiday — with whom they had won their first title in 50 years — for aging superstar point guard Damian Lillard with their sights set on expanding Giannis Antetokounmpo's championship window. Instead, it's starting to look like they acquired a lemon.
