Damian Lillard has torn his Achilles tendon in his left leg. An MRI confirmed the Bucks’ worst fears on Monday morning, a day after Milwaukee went down 3-1 in their first round series against the Pacers following Lillard’s injury.

Lillard's comments show that he's still determined to return to action. Recovering from an Achilles tendon tear has never been an easy task. However, the nine-time All-Star is determined to be healthy and back on the floor for the Bucks.

Damian Lillard’s season may now be over. The Milwaukee Bucks star went down with a left lower leg injury just minutes into the team's 129-103 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night, which dropped them into a 3-1 hole in their opening-round playoff series.
