MILWAUKEE (AP) — Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard has left Game 4 of an Eastern Conference first-round playoff series with the Indiana Pacers after hurting his lower left leg the first quarter. Lillard was helped off the floor and into the locker room after suffering the non-contact injury. The Bucks announced he won’t return to the game.

It seemed reasonable back then to think that Giannis Antetokounmpo could win multiple titles in Milwaukee. Now, that dream looks dead. Giannis remains a top-three player in the league and has played unbelievably in the playoffs over the past three seasons.
