Bucks' Damian Lillard out for Game 4 vs. Pacers

Lillard has sat out the past two games with a right Achilles injury. The eight-time All-Star averaged 32.3 points in the first three games of the series for the Bucks, who trail 3-2 in the best-of-seven series. On Tuesday, Rivers described Lillard and Antetokounmpo as "very, very, very close" to playing.

Antetokounmpo is still rehabbing a calf strain that has kept him out since April 9, while Lillard is sidelined with an Achilles injury that occurred late in Game 3 and ruled him out of Game 4. Based on Bucks head coach Doc Rivers' quotes, it doesn't seem like either were all that close to playing.

INDIANAPOLIS -- After spending the hours leading up to Game 6 getting around-the-clock treatment on his injured right Achilles, Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard said he decided he wouldn't be able to enter the summer without knowing he did all he could to be on the floor.
