MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard is in concussion protocol and won't play Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. The Bucks announced the update on the seven-time All-NBA guard's status Monday. The 34-year-old Lillard is averaging 26 points, 6.6 assists and 4.6 rebounds. Milwaukee already was without three-time All-Star forward Khris Middleton. Middleton hasn't made his 2024-25 debut after undergoing surgery on each of his ankles. Bucks forward and two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as probable as he deals with right patella tendinopathy.
