Lillard was 6-of-14 from the floor including 4-of-7 from behind the 3-point line. The 34-year-old guard had no trouble getting to the foul line against the Raptors on Friday and made all 10 of his free throws. He's had at least 25 points in five of his last seven games as he continues to light up opposing defenses. Lillard has bounced back nicely with top-10 fantasy value this year.
The Bucks are without Andre Jackson Jr., who injured his hip during Wednesday's win over the Magic. Rollins will fill the resulting void in the starting lineup, making him worthy of a look in deep leagues. Milwaukee's other four starters are unchanged.
Lillard finished Wednesday's 122-93 victory over the Magic with 30 points (13-19 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, four assists and four steals over 30 minutes.
Lillard put on a show on the night when the Bucks gave fans hats designed by the eight-time All-Star. Dame made all three of his 3-point attempts and shot 10-of-16 from inside the arc, as Orlando had no answer for him or his Bucks teammates. Milwaukee shot 62.5% from the field in one of its most impressive efforts of the season. As for Lillard's fantasy value, he's providing top-10 value in 8- and 9-cat formats, which fantasy managers hoped for after a comparatively lackluster 2023-24.
