The Milwaukee Bucks are expected to get Damian Lillard back in the lineup either for Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday or for Game 3 on Friday next week, ESPN's Shams Charania reported Saturday.
Lillard has been sidelined since March 18 with a blood clot in his calf. It was previously reported that he would be able to return at some point during the Bucks' playoff run, but he was ruled out for Saturday's Game 1.
