According to a report from ESPN's Shams Charania, Bucks guard Damian Lillard has been cleared of deep vein thrombosis and could return soon.

Bucks star Damian Lillard has been cleared of his deep vein thrombosis and is no longer on blood-thinning medication, sources told ESPN.

Granted, it's unclear if he will be cleared in time for any of the team's first-round matchup with the Indiana Pacers, a tough team in its own right that has become a fairly heated rival for these Bucks in recent years. The Bucks did win the season series 3-1, however, and finished the regular season on an eight-game winning streak.
