Milwaukee Bucks superstar guard Damian Lillard took to his personal Instagram account to share a brief but heartfelt message with his fans. Lillard opened up about his injury and offered a few words on his current situation. "Appreciate all the prayers and well wishes. This one really hurt... HIS way not MY way."

Milwaukee Bucks star Damian Lillard will be sidelined indefinitely after suffering a torn Achilles. According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, Lillard is in "good spirits" and is "motivated on attacking his rehab": Lillard's availability for the start of 2025-26 is now in doubt because of the injury's severity.

He is out for the rest of this season and likely most, if not all, of next season. It puts the Bucks at a crossroads.
