Will Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard play tonight against the Phoenix Suns?

The Milwaukee Bucks have got off to a rocky start in the four games since Doc Rivers took over on the sidelines. Tonight they wrap up their five game road trip in Phoenix looking to return home with a win, but they will have to do it without one of their stars.

Dame has an ankle sprain

The Bucks had everyone but Khris Middleton in their last game against the Utah Jazz. Middleton is back but they have some big names on the injury report tonight. Giannis Antetokounmpo has been dealing with patella tendonitis in his knee, but he and Andre Jackson Jr. who has a sprained right wrist are listed as probable. Brooks Lopez is also on the injury report listed as questionable as he tends to personal issues.

Damian Lillard played through an ankle sprain in Utah and came into tonight as questionable, but was a late scratch. He played 38 minutes and went just 5/18 from the field ending the night with 12 points, and will take the night off to rest his injured ankle.

Rivers still not flowing in Milwaukee

Lillard and Giannis make up one of the most deadly duos but tonight they will be without half of their two headed monster. The Greek is averaging a third best 31.3 points a game, while dragging down 11.4 boards a game, good enough for 6th in the league, and dishing 6.4 assists. Lillard has fit right in to Milwaukee, averaging 24.9 points 4.2 rebounds and 6.8 assists.

Milwaukee would have wanted all hands on deck tonight as they continue to work out the kinks under new head coach Doc Rivers. He took over last week, and since then the Bucks are 1-3 meanwhile they lost their grip on second place in the Eastern Conference.
