Damian Lillard left Game 4 of the Indiana Pacers vs. Milwaukee Bucks playoff series midway through the first quarter after suffering an apparent left leg injury.

He fell to the court while chasing a long rebound and didn’t get up until Brook Lopez committed a foul on the Pacers’ next play with 5:57 remaining. He was immediately taken to the locker room.

Chris Haynes reported Lillard will not return the rest of the game: “Injury potentially severe,” he posted on X. TNT confirmed Lillard was out.
