Tip-off is scheduled for 7:30 PM (Central).
The title bout of the 2024 NBA Cup is upon us, between the Milwaukee Bucks and Oklahoma City Thunder tonight from Las Vegas. Both teams have won 12 of their last 15 games, and that will technically remain the same regardless of this outcome since it doesn’t count in the standings.
After initially being listed as probable with a non-Covid illness, Khris Middleton was downgraded to doubtful this afternoon, and now Doc Rivers says he won’t suit up tonight. Per Eric Nehm of The Athletic, Giannis and Dame are good to go, though. Get well soon, Khash!
