Damian Lillard: Returns Monday without restrictions

Lillard (foot) will play without restrictions Monday against the Grizzlies, Joe Freeman of The Oregonian reports.

Analysis:

Lillard has sat out the past seven games with a left foot injury so it's a bit surprising that coach Terry Stotts won't hold him back to prevent further injury. Nevertheless, Lillard will maintain a full workload as Allen Crabbe likely heads back to a bench role.
