    Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard: Wins 3-Point Contest

    Damian Lillard (Achilles) defeated Devin Booker (ankle) and Kon Knueppel in the final round of Saturday's 2026 State Farm 3-Point Contest, taking home his third title.After losing to Tyler Herro (ribs) in 2025, Lillard won his third 3-Point Contest in four years. He's now tied with Larry Bird and Craig Hodges for the most 3-Point Contest wins in NBA history. The star point guard posted 27 points in the first round and 29 in the second, when he beat Booker by two and Knueppel by 12. Lillard knocked down seven of his final 10 shots in Round 2 and made one shot from the logo. The 35-year-old is still recovering from a torn left Achilles tendon he sustained with the Bucks in the opening round of the playoffs last season, and he'll aim to return to action for Portland by the start of the 2026-27 campaign.

    Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard: Appearing in 3-Point Contest

    Damian Lillard (Achilles) is scheduled to participate Saturday in the 2026 State Farm 3-Point Contest at All-Star weekend in Los Angeles.While he isn't on track to play in games at any point this season after undergoing surgery May 2 to repair a torn left Achilles tendon, Lillard is thus far moving along in his rehab program as anticipated and evidently made enough progress for the Portland Trail Blazers to sign off on him taking part in All-Star festivities. Earlier this week, Lillard was reluctant to provide many details about where he stands in his recovery process, but he's posted social media videos throughout the season that have shown him shooting, sprinting and dunking, per Jason Quick of The Athletic. After taking part in the 3-Point Contest, Lillard could be cleared to practice in some fashion before the end of the season, which would likely set the stage for him to be a full participant at the beginning of training camp next fall.

    Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard: Not expected to play this season

    Damian Lillard (Achilles) won't be back on the court for the 2025-26 season, as he made clear during an interview with YouTube influencer iShowSpeed on Wednesday.Lillard underwent surgery on a torn Achilles tendon in his left foot over the summer after suffering the injury during the first round of the NBA playoffs with the Bucks against the Pacers. The veteran guard was then waived by Milwaukee on July 1, making him an unrestricted free agent. The future Hall of Famer then decided to return to the Blazers on a three-year contract worth $42 million with a player option for the 2027-28 season. He also has a no-trade clause in his deal.

    Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard: Expected to sign with Portland

    Damian Lillard (Achilles) is finalizing a three-year contract with the Portland Trail Blazers, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.Lillard suffered a torn Achilles tendon April 27 during the NBA playoffs, resulting in him being ruled out for the rest of the postseason. The Bucks then shockingly waived the veteran superstar July 1 to bring in Myles Turner in free agency. There was speculation that Lillard was of interest to several teams as a free agent, but he ultimately decided to return to where it all began in Portland. It remains to be seen whether he'll play during the 2025-26 campaign or sit out to be fresh for the 2026-27 NBA season. Lillard's deal will be worth $42 million with a player option for the 2027-28 season and will also include a no-trade clause, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    Damian Lillard: Waived by Milwaukee

    The Bucks waived Damian Lillard (Achilles) on Tuesday, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.After managing to pry Myles Turner away from Indiana with a four-year, $107 million deal, the Bucks made another huge splash by waiving their superstar point guard, who is currently recovering from a torn Achilles. Charania reports that the Bucks found a creative way to waive Lillard by stretching out the remainder of his $113 million contract over five years. With Lillard set to miss most, if not all, of the 2025-26 season, he'll now have to seek opportunities elsewhere.

    Bucks' Damian Lillard: Tears Achilles, out for season

    Damian Lillard has been diagnosed with a left torn Achilles tendon, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.During Game 4 against the Pacers on Sunday, Lillard went down with a left leg injury after logging only six minutes. Although many speculated that it could be an Achilles tear, it wasn't officially confirmed until Monday, resulting in the superstar guard being forced to miss the rest of the NBA playoffs and potentially missing most, if not all, of next season. The postseason campaign comes to an end for the veteran guard after playing three games, averaging 7.0 points, 2.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game across 25.0 minutes per contest.

    Bucks' Damian Lillard: Slated for MRI

    Damian Lillard is scheduled to undergo an MRI on his left lower leg Monday, Tim Reynolds of Associated Press reports.Lillard sustained what appeared to be a serious injury with just over six minutes left in the first quarter of the Milwaukee Bucks' 129-103 loss to the Pacers in Game 4 of the first-round playoff series. After the game, head coach Doc Rivers said Lillard's prognosis is "not very promising," with all signs pointing to the veteran point guard having sustained a torn left Achilles tendon. An official diagnosis will be provided once the results of the MRI are available, but Lillard appears highly unlikely to play in Tuesday's Game 5, and his availability for the rest of the playoffs and potentially the start of the 2025-26 season could be in jeopardy. Kevin Porter started at point guard in the second half of Sunday's contest, and he and Ryan Rollins should be in store for expanded roles out of the backcourt if Lillard misses time.

    Bucks' Damian Lillard: Won't return Sunday

    Damian Lillard has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Game 4 matchup against the Pacers due to a left lower leg injury, NBA reporter Chris Haynes reports.Lillard played six minutes before going down with the leg injury, which resulted in him needing to be taken immediately to the locker room. Haynes relays that the injury is potentially severe, which means Lillard could be dealing with an Achilles tear that would knock him out of the remainder of the postseason and cast serious doubt on his availability for the 2025-26 season, at minimum. Lillard will likely undergo an MRI on Monday before a diagnosis of his injury is provided.

    Bucks' Damian Lillard: Struggles from field in Game 3

    Damian Lillard finished with seven points (2-12 FG, 1-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, five assists, two blocks and two steals across 32 minutes during Friday's 117-101 win over Indiana in Game 3 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.Giannis Antetokounmpo and Gary Trent led the way for the Milwaukee Bucks in this win, and that was needed due to Lillard's shooting woes. The star floor general has shot the ball poorly in his two games since returning from a calf injury, making just six of his 25 shots from the field and going 3-for-16 from three-point range. The star floor general will aim to bounce back in Game 4 on Sunday.
