Damian Lillard Sits Out Thursday's Action
2 years agoPortland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard (calf) will sit out Thursday's game versus New Orleans. He just returned from a right calf strain, and Lillard had no issues logging 71 minutes across two outings, but it's the second leg of a back-to-back and the team is being cautious with its star player. Lillard's recent four-game absence resulted in Anfernee Simons having a nice scoring spurt, and Shaedon Sharpe benefits from the situation as well.
