Folks, there’s something amiss with Damian Lillard tonight. Looks like his left leg is bothering him. He’s meeting with trainer now. Usually ends workout with dunk, he bypassed it today. Will update shortly.

In reference to @jwquick tweet, here is video of Lillard pregame with watchful eyes from team medical personnel. He's also walking a little gingerly, skipping his usual dunk to conclude his warm-up. #RipCity pic.twitter.com/cuJPhZGYtQ

Next, the Spurs are missing lots of people. Kawhi also reportedly suffered a fresh shoulder injury.
Kawhi Leonard, Tony Parker and Rudy Gay are all out for San Antonio tonight vs. the Blazers. Danny Green is doubtful.
