The M͏ilwaukee Bu͏cks are playoff bound once a͏gain͏, holding strong near the ͏top of the Eastern Conference standings. But as the postseason nears, ͏one major question rema͏ins͏—will Damian͏ L͏illard be ready?

Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers offered a slight update on star point guard Damian Lillard, who remains sidelined with deep vein thrombosis in his right calf. "Everything is still progressing positively," Rivers told reporters on Thursday. "Last test was fantastic. So, you know, that's about all I have. Fingers crossed."
