Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 PM (Central)
The Milwaukee Bucks take on the Brooklyn Nets in the two teams’ first meeting in Milwaukee, but the third overall. With Dennis Schröder gone and Cam Thomas out, the struggling Nets will have to resort to alternative sources of offence in this one. For the Bucks, whoever plays, it will be a mental test to maintain focus and get the job done. They’ve done it a few times in a row now with Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard out. Can they do it again?
Update: Giannis’ injury designation has changed.
#Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo went from questionable to play tonight vs. Brooklyn due to back spasms to questionable due to an illness.
He’s the latest on the team to fall ill.
Damian Lillard also questionable with an illness.

Update: both Giannis and Dame are OUT tonight.
Doc Rivers confirmed that Giannis and Dame are OUT for tonight with a non-Covid illness.
Doc said that both of them were on track to play before the illnesses came about.
