Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 PM (Central).
Following their win last night against the Toronto Raptors, the Milwaukee Bucks will go against the Detroit Pistons at Fiserv Forum in the second game of a back-to-back. Thankfully, both squads will be going into this one on B2Bs so any fatigue will be mostly equal between the sides. Either way, the Bucks will need to bring their A-game against an improved Pistons team that sits at 5-7. If Milwaukee intends on continuing to climb out of the early season hole they’ve placed themselves in it’s critical to rack up wins against lesser (on paper) opponents like the Pistons. The victory against a banged-up and bad Raptors team was a good first step. Time to keep the ship turning in the right direction and go for the first winning streak of the season!
As far as injury updates, the Bucks will be without Damian Lillard (concussion protocol), Khris Middleton (ankle surgery rehab), Ryan Rollins (left shoulder instability), and, surprisingly, Bobby Portis (elbow contusion):
Late injury news: Bobby Portis Jr. is OUT tonight with a right elbow contusion. Tested it out in warmups & can’t go for the #Bucks
