Yes…right now the two #Bucks superstars are trying to get healthy. But when they return, how Khris Middleton and the rest of the Bucks play off Giannis Antetokounmpo & Damian Lillard will be key to success in the NBA playoffs

How is Giannis Antetokounmpo progressing?
Doc Rivers: “He’s doing well. He’s walking around and looks good. I can say he’s farther than we thought he would be, but just not ready yet.”
Still hopeful he can play?
Rivers: “I’m still hopeful, but I just have no idea right now.” – 4:04 PM
