Damian Lillard has been upgraded to 'questionable' as the Milwaukee Bucks prepare for game two against the Indiana Pacers in their NBA playoff series. This comes after Lillard, who has missed the last 14 games due to a deep vein thrombosis diagnosis in his right calf, participated in a full practice for the first time since his injury. Bucks coach Doc Rivers acknowledged the positive signs regarding Lillard's potential return, but emphasized the need for him to regain game fitness before rejoining the action.

Despite Lillard's absence, the Bucks are hopeful that his return can provide a much-needed boost after their disappointing loss to the Pacers in game one. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 36 points, but the team struggled with offensive support. Lillard's impressive season averages of just under 25 points, along with 4.7 rebounds and 7.1 assists, highlight his significance to the team's performance.
