Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard will miss at least three games with an abdominal injury.
The team announced Wednesday that the 31-year-old guard is dealing with lower abdominal tendinopathy. He will be re-evaluated next week.
Lillard was inactive for Monday night's 136-131 victory over the Atlanta Hawks. He will not play in Portland's home games against the Miami Heat (Wednesday), Cleveland Cavaliers (Friday), and Sacramento Kings (Sunday).
A six-time All-Star, Lillard leads the Blazers in scoring (24.0 points per game) and assists (7.3) through 29 games this season. His shooting percentages from the field (40.2 percent) and 3-point range (32.4) are both the lowest of his 10-year NBA career.
