For the third year in a row, the Bucks suffered a first-round exit from the postseason, this time at the hands of the Indiana Pacers, who needed just five games to dispose of Milwaukee. Adding to the pain for the Bucks was the serious lower-body injury that superstar point guard Damian Lillard sustained in the opening period of the series' Game 4.

While Damian Lillard may return at the end of next season from a torn Achilles tendon, here’s a look at his current contract situation with the Bucks.

When Kevin Durant suffered a torn Achilles tendon while playing for the Golden State Warriors in Game 5 of the 2019 NBA Finals, he ended up missing the entirety of the 2019-20 season. He later told ESPN's Baxter Holmes he had feared the injury would be career-ending.
