Damian Lillard NEWS
Damian Lillard Available For Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The superstar guard has been cleared to play despite dealing with a sprained left ankle. It sounds like the injury isn't going to hinder his performance. He is coming off a 50-point performance, so fantasy managers should make sure he's in their lineups for Saturday. Anfernee Simons, Josh Hart, Jerami Grant, and Jusuf Nurkic will join Lillard in the starting five for Saturday's slate.
Jan 15, 2023 • 2:17 AM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard To Play On Thursday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The superstar guard has been cleared to play despite dealing with a minor ankle issue. Anfernee Simons will go back to playing his normal role, but has played extremely well when Lillard has been out this season. Shaedon Sharpe and Keon Johnson should continue to play minor roles off the bench, but aren't worth streaming in most formats. Fantasy managers should double check that Lillard is in their lineups for Thursday's slate.
Jan 13, 2023 • 3:03 AM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Questionable For Thursday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The superstar guard has been playing big minutes lately, so he could use a day off. That being said, his absence would leave a big hole in the rotation. Anfernee Simons would likely be asked to move into the starting five, while Gary Payton II, Shaedon Sharpe and Keon Johnson would see more minutes as well. Simons would be a popular DFS option, so fantasy managers should check back on Thursday to see if Lillard is able to play.
Jan 12, 2023 • 1:54 AM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard To Miss Time
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) was forced to exit early during Saturday's loss to the Utah Jazz. He has been diagnosed with a strained right calf, which is not good news for the Blazers. The expectation is that Lillard will miss at least a few games because of this injury. Shaedon Sharpe will likely be asked to fill the void and is worth rostering in most fantasy formats. Sharpe has played fairly well this season and should have increased value with Lillard likely to miss time.
Nov 20, 2022 • 8:18 PM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Won't Return On Saturday Night
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) won't return to Sunday's meeting with Utah. Lillard began experiencing tightness in his right calf, the same one that kept him out of the lineup for five games this season. Considering the ailment hasn't resolved, there's a good chance he won't be available on Tuesday in Milwaukee. If that's the case, 2022 No. 7 overall pick Shaedon Sharpe may fill the void. The 19-year-old has averaged 9.8 points in four stats this season, so he won't offer much to fantasy managers unless he increases his production.
Nov 20, 2022 • 5:09 AM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Off The Injury Report Against Mavs
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Saturday's meeting with Dallas. He missed four games because of a right calf strain before returning against the Heat less than a week ago. However, the 32-year-old Sat out on Thursday versus New Orleans, the second of back-to-back outings. Despite playing only 29 games in 2021-22, Lillard came back with a vengeance, averaging 28.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, and shooting 40.8% from deep. Obviously, fantasy managers should get him back into the starting lineup.

Portland 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.
Nov 10, 2022 • 7:52 PM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Listed As Probable On Wednesday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) has been listed as probable to play in Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He was able to make his return from a strained calf on Monday night, but still made an appearance on the injury report. It seems as though it was just in case he was feeling any effects from their previous game. While he had a rough game with just 19 points, six assists, and four turnovers, the star guard didn't seem too bothered by any lingering pain. He's always a must-start when he plays, so he'll look to right the ship on Wednesday.
Nov 9, 2022 • 4:47 PM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Will Be Re-Evaluated In 1-2 Weeks
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (calf) is now set to miss at least one to two weeks. The calf strain that he suffered during Wednesday's loss to Miami didn't sound too severe at the time. Now the report is that he needs to be re-evaluated after missing some time. In the meantime, Shaedon Sharpe, Anfernee Simons and Josh Hart should all see more minutes and opportunities. Lillard said himself that he would have kept playing if it was a playoff game, so that's encouraging news that he shouldn't be out too long.
Oct 27, 2022 • 11:20 PM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Bothered By A Calf Strain
Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard missed the end of Wednesday's loss to Miami with a right calf strain. He noted after the game that his calf was feeling tight already before tip-off. It tightened up even more over the course of the game and Lillard decided to exit. He added that he would've continued to play if this would've been a playoff game, so it looks like the ailment isn't too serious, but Lillard said that he will likely skip Friday's contest against Houston. Rookie Shaedon Sharpe, who had the best game of his young career on Wednesday with 15 points and eight rebounds, is set for a bigger role with Lillard out, and there should be more shots available for Anfernee Simons, Jerami Grant and Josh Hart.
Oct 27, 2022 • 6:39 PM | RotoBallerDamian Lillard Feeling "Great"
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (abdomen) declared he feels "great" after undergoing abdominal surgery early in January. The multi-time All-Star had been dealing with the injury for years. However, it became unbearable, forcing him to go under the knife. It was undoubtedly a chaotic year for Lillard, who appeared at times to be on his way out of Portland. Yet, he now seems happy and optimistic about the team's current roster, adding that he plans on finishing his career with the Trail Blazers. The 32-year-old has been an MVP-caliber superstar since entering the NBA in 2012, averaging 24.6 points, 6.6 assists, 4.2 rebounds, 1.0 steals and shooting 37.3% from deep. As long as Lillard stays healthy, he has a realistic chance of ending the 2022-23 campaign as a top-five fantasy option, so managers in all formats should strongly consider drafting him heading into October.
