Dame Lillard (abdominal injury), Nassir Little (ankle) set to miss time

Portland guard Damian Lillard will be sidelined for at least 10 days with an MRI reveal of a lower abdominal tendinopathy, and forward Nassir Little will also be out for at least a week with a left ankle sprain, the team says.

ANALYSIS: With Little and Lillard set to miss some time, Ben McLemore and Afernee Simons are candidates to absorb most of those available minutes. Look for CJ McCollum to also take on a bigger role passing and distributing the ball with Lillard out of the lineup.
