Damian Lillard practiced fully but Giannis Antetokounmpo remained out of live drills as the Bucks prepared for their playoff opener against the Pacers. Rivers hopes Antetokounmpo will be available despite a calf injury.
Lillard is returning to the playoffs after missing out for the last two years with the Trail Blazers. He is gearing up to lead the Bucks in Antetokounmpo's likely absence. AJ Green also made progress in practice after an ankle injury.
