The OKC Thunder will be wrapping up their East Coast trip with their final stop in Milwaukee tonight, which will determine whether the trip was fully successful or if the Bucks still have the potential to end that streak. Honestly, a large part of this will depend on the statuses of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard. And their recent update may leave the fanbase a little worried.
Sure, Giannis and Lillard have been on the probable list a few times recently but still suited up for the final showdown. However, this time could be different, as the Bucks will be on the second night of a back-to-back. So, the team might decide to sideline them to avoid the risks of exhaustion.
Hours before the East vs. West face-off, the Bucks dropped their injury report. Giannis and Lillard are once again on it. The franchise has listed them as probable for Monday night’s game. The Greek Freak is still dealing with tendinopathy in his right knee, while Lillard’s sore right groin is causing discomfort. However, that’s not the final verdict. The team will assess their condition before making a final decision ahead of the game.
