Giannis Antetokounmpo, who leads the Milwaukee Bucks with 30.4 points and 12.1 rebounds per game, has been a cornerstone of Milwaukee’s success this season. His presence on the court is critical as the Bucks (38-29) aim to solidify their playoff positioning. Despite the knee concern, the team remains optimistic about his participation.

The Milwaukee Bucks’ injury report also includes Damian Lillard (probable, groin), Gary Trent Jr. (probable, knee), and Jericho Sims (out, thumb). Lillard, averaging 21.6 points and 5.7 assists over the last 20 games, is expected to play, providing additional firepower alongside Antetokounmpo.
On the Warriors’ side, Brandin Podziemski is the lone player on the injury report, listed as day-to-day with a back issue. Golden State (39-29) will rely heavily on Stephen Curry, who averages 28.6 points and 4.9 three-pointers per game in his last 20 outings. The Warriors’ +167 scoring differential highlights their balanced attack, but containing Giannis Antetokounmpo will be a top priority.
Milwaukee’s recent form has been solid, with a +143 scoring differential and a 12th-ranked offense averaging 114.8 points per game. However, their defense, allowing 112.7 points per contest (13th in the NBA), will need to step up against Curry and the Warriors’ fourth-ranked three-point shooting.
