www.essentiallysports.comI don’t have live access to current news in this moment. Here’s the best recent context I can share based on the latest widely reported updates:
- Damian Lillard has been recovering from a serious Achilles-related issue and, as of early 2026, there had been expectations and public indications that his return could happen for the 2026-27 season, with some hopeful signs during late 2025 and early 2026 about gradual progression.[3][4]
- Reports in early 2026 suggested he was participating in events like the 3-point contest, which was interpreted as positive momentum toward a return, but official game action for the 2025-26 season was not anticipated.[1][6]
- Earlier timelines varied, with initial projections aiming for a 2025-26 return being unlikely, and a stronger emphasis on returning for the 2026-27 season if healing continued on schedule.[4][3]
