Damian Lillard’s Return Is Bad News For The Kings

The Sacramento Kings need all the victories that they can get, and their chances of getting one on Saturday just became a lot harder.

Their opponent for that game, the Portland Trail Blazers, announced on Monday that Damian Lillard is scheduled to make his return to the lineup this Wednesday against the Wizards. Lillard has missed the last five games with a groin injury and Portland is 1-4. He was enjoying one of the best stretches of his all-star career in late January by averaging a blistering 45 points per game over an eight game span.
