Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is expected to play against the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night, November 29.,Antetokounmpo returns after missing four games due to a left adductor strain management.The Milwaukee Bucks are looking to end a seven-game losing streak on Saturday night, November 29, when they host the Brooklyn Nets at Fiserv Forum. This losing streak is the longest the team has experienced since dropping eight consecutive games from March 11-27, 2014.<\/p>\n
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers stated before the game that Giannis Antetokounmpo was expected to play, although he cautioned that “that can always change.” The team later confirmed Antetokounmpo’s availability before tip-off. Antetokounmpo had missed the previous four games, including a loss to the New York Knicks on November 28, and was listed on the injury report as questionable with left adductor strain injury management.<\/p>\n
Kevin Porter Jr. is also set to play. The guard was listed as questionable following right knee meniscus surgery. Porter has been sidelined since the first quarter of the season’s opening game on October 22, initially suffering a sprained left ankle in that game. He then sustained the knee injury during a workout on October 30, leading to surgery on November 3.<\/p>\n
The Milwaukee Bucks injury report confirms Taurean Prince is out due to neck surgery, Giannis Antetokounmpo is available for left adductor strain injury management, and Kevin Porter Jr. is available following right knee meniscus surgery.<\/p>\n
Probable starters for the Milwaukee Bucks include Ryan Rollins and Gary Trent Jr. at guard, A.J. Green and Giannis Antetokounmpo at forward, and Myles Turner at center.<\/p>\n
The game will be broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin\/WMLW with Lisa Byington (play-by-play), Wesley Matthews (analysis), and Melanie Ricks (sideline). Radio coverage will be provided by WTMJ Radio & BMO Bucks Radio Network with Dave Koehn and Justin Garcia.<\/p>\n
