Damian Lillard (groin) to reportedly miss 1-2 weeks for Portland
Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard will miss the next week at least, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo! Sports.
What It Means:
Lillard has been dealing with a groin issue, and it seems as though he suffered a strain, per an MRI. His absence likely means C.J. McCollum runs the point, and Anfernee Simons or Gary Trent Jr. could potentially join the starting lineup.
In 54 games this season, Lillard has averaged 29.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, 7.9 assists and 47.6 FanDuel points.
