    I just finished watching the game. Great win. Is Dame okay? He seemed to be in a lot of pain at the end there.

    My guess is he over extended it and will be 100% by Sunday. Lots of Ice the next couple days though.

    Joe Freeman ‏@BlazerFreeman Lillard said he felt his right hand go "pop, pop" as he crashed to Moda Center court. But X-rays revealed no issue. "I'll be fine," he said.

    Phew. Thanks Sly. Dame is tough. I hope he retires as a Blazer and never misses a game.

    I'm no Doc, but that he was shaking hands with various teammates & Pacers after the game is a pretty good indication that he's fine

    I could have sworn it was with his non-injured hand.

    if dame shoots with his right, that'd mean hes doing all that with his left hand.. and thats just awkward.

    Lillard fell and injured his hand late in last nights game. Initially x-rays came back negative, obviously they want a bit more information.

    It appeared to be his right ring finger. I wouldn't doubt if he broke it. On the replay, it looked, to me, that as he was falling, the finger hit the ball and went back too far. Could have also hyperextended it. Hopefully it's nothing serious, but he is a tough dude and the way he kept shaking it had me concerned.

    Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard has a right middle and ring finger sprain. He will play Sunday at New York.

    HCP you should ask LMA if re-signing with the Blazers is a slam dunk.
