Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable heading into Sunday's meeting with the visiting Celtics. The multi-time All-Star missed a recent contest against the Cavaliers because of a groin issue. However, he's been on the floor the last two games, so he'll likely be out there versus the defending champs. As always, fantasy managers should keep him starting.
Milwaukee Bucks guard Gary Trent Jr. (back) won't play in Friday's meeting with the New York Knicks. The 25-year-old began the season in the starting lineup. However, he's struggled this season, resulting in a demotion to the bench in favor of Andre Jackson Jr., who had seven points, four assists, and four steals in Thursday's win over the Utah Jazz. With that said, Trent wouldn't have been featured in most fantasy lineups, so his absence on Friday won't be much of a blow to managers.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (groin) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. The superstar forward is back after sitting out of Monday's game. Antetokounmpo figures to have a normal workload, but could see the bench early if the Bucks are able to blowout Utah. Fantasy managers can go ahead and get Antetokounmpo back in their lineups on Thursday. Bobby Portis figures to head back to the bench and will take a hit in value. It's worth noting that the Bucks play on Friday as well, so it's possible that Antetokounmpo sits out in that one if his groin is still giving him issues.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (adductor) is questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Utah Jazz. The Freak didn't play in Monday's loss to the Cavaliers because of a right adductor strain, marking his first absence of the 2024-25 campaign. Bobby Portis got the start in that one, finishing with 21 points, 18 rebounds, and three blocks. If Antetokounmpo is ruled out again, Portis could be in line for another solid fantasy performance. The same can be said for Damian Lillard, who had 36 points on Monday night.
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (adductor) won't play on Monday night against the Cavaliers. The multi-time All-Star has been listed on the injury report all season for a knee issue. However, an adductor strain will keep him off the floor versus Cleveland. With Khris Middleton (ankles) still out, Damian Lillard should see a surge in scoring opportunities. Bobby Portis, who will likely slide into the starting lineup, Gary Trent Jr., and Brook Lopez could also surpass fantasy expectations with Antetokounmpo sidelined.
