Damian Lillard (DVT) Able To Enter Recovery Phase

Tremendous news came out featuring Damian Lillard and his current blood clot situation, and that is the fact he has been cleared of his deep vein thrombosis (DVT for short).

While he cannot play in Game 1 against the Indiana Pacers, the talented veteran can resume contact workouts and begin ramping himself up for games in the future.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, Lillard is no longer required to take blood-thinning medication. In just over three weeks, Lillard has been able to be medically cleared. This development is something doctors never have seen before.

The medical professionals told Milwaukee that this was due to early treatment, detection of the issue, and having specialists being able to treat Lillard even before a formal diagnosis.

The Bucks first round matchup is against the Pacers, which will be an exciting series. Their contest begins Saturday.
