The Portland Trail Blazers will be without Damian Lillard tonight as they go up against the 3-1 series leading Los Angeles Lakers in a win or go home situation. Can they extend the series? Find out by watching the NBA live stream of Game 5 online at TNTDrama.com.
According to NBA.com, Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard will be out for Game 5 with a sprained knee. Look for CJ McCollum, Carmelo Anthony, and Jusuf Nurkić to take on even more scoring and playmaking duties tonight.
Ever since the Lakers lost Game 1 of this NBA Playoff series, the team has collectively elevated their game. It’s going to be all uphill for the Trail Blazers without their franchise player and primary scoring/playmaking option. It’s likely Carmelo will be the one to naturally get more shots in Lillard’s absence with the Trail Blazers needing two go-to options that can create their own shots on the perimeter.
The results of a second MRI confirm Damian Lillard with a right knee sprain. Lillard is listed as out for Game 5.
