Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (sprained left ankle) did not participate during Tuesday's practice.
Considering it was a just a light practice, it's not encouraging to see Lillard sit it out. Known for gutting it out through injuries, it looks like Lillard has a chance to miss another game. If that's the case, look for C.J. McCollum to have a very high usage rate on Wednesday, while Shabazz Napier and Allen Crabbe will get a bump in minutes.
Lillard is having a career year, averaging 27.0 points, 6.2 assists and 4.5 rebounds over 35.8 minutes per game. He owns a career-best .520 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of 3.9 ranks him 17th in the league.
