Bucks lose Lillard, Giannis’ title window is in jeopardy

Well, Dub Nation, the basketball gods are at it again with their cruel sense of timing. Just when the Milwaukee Bucks were trying to build momentum for a playoff push, Dame Lillard gets hit with a medical curveball that nobody saw coming. Deep vein thrombosis in his right calf? That’s not just a regular injury. That’s the kind of diagnosis that makes everyone in the organization hold their breath.

Let’s be real: the Bucks’ title hopes just took a massive hit. At 40-32, they’re already clinging to the 6th seed, with Indiana pulling away and Detroit jumping up one spot.
