Portland Trail Blazers star Damian Lillard is planning to have surgery for a lingering abdominal injury, ESPN reported Wednesday.

Lillard, who last played on December 31, would be out at least six to eight weeks. According to ESPN, a final decision is expected this week.

Lillard aggravated the injury while playing for the U.S. at the Tokyo Olympics last summer, and has been dealing with the problem throughout the season.
