Damian Lillard IN, Giannis Antetokounmpo OUT For Game 6

According to Chris Haynes, Damian Lillard has been cleared to play in a series-deciding Game 6 against the Pacers. The Bucks missed him during their win in Game 5, but will be more than happy to have him back.

However, according to Adrian Wojnarowski, Giannis Antetokounmpo has been ruled out for Thursday’s game. Both players attempted to make a comeback for this series, but only Lillard got cleared.

Antetokounmpo is still dealing with his calf injury, and no real timeline has been established for him. In terms of Lillard’s Achilles, how healthy he is unknown, it’s just a matter of needing to be involved in tonight’s life-or-death game.

The Pacers have the opportunity to close out the series at home. Tune in at 6:30 PM EST time to watch on TNT.
