Grayson Allen is also out. Sprained ankle. Connaughton also out.

Crowder and Ingles come in
Lopez hits 2 floaters from midrange
21-28 Bucks, at the end of the 1st Quarter. Jevon Carter with 3 3s in the quarter.
Many sloppy passes by the Bucks, so far.
Holiday drains 2 3s, in a row.
Middleton out for the remainder of the game with knee soreness.
Wheres Middleton?
and I love watching the Bucks when I’m in MN. Just wish Giannis was playing, he’s fun to watch.
Cross posts, apparently.
Bulls fighting back. Bucks lead down to 1. Not anymore. Bucks trail by 1.
Bud decides to sit Giannis at the last minute. And then Middleton has to leave with a knee problem.
Celtics up double digits right now and Bucks are behind.
Why do you fukk around with this game? Play Giannis, win the game, and then sit everyone the next two games.
If they don't win this, they have two tough games coming up that won't be cakewalks while the Celtics have two home games.
Vucevic lighting them up. I don't think that happens if Giannis doesn't sit.
51-49 Chicago at the half.
Bucks behind at the half and will be without 3 starters for the second half.
Bucks acting like they dont care if they win.
Has anyone won the MVP despite missing over 20% of the regular season games?
Bulls come out firing and put their lead at 10.

They haven't clinched yet. Boston is now up double digits and the Buck are down double digits.
If they don't sit Giannis, this doesn't happen.
Also, at what point do you think about resting Lopez and Holiday? Don't they count as important guys too?
Middleton just can't get healthy, can he? That's really going to bite us in the ass come playoff time.
Every time someone has a little soreness, they have to sit. Take a freaking Tylenol and gut it out.
Bucks down 2. Portis is doing everything he can to keep us in this. 19 points, 4-6 from 3.
Bucks tie it up on Lopez's shot. 12-0 run for Milwaukee. Bucks retake the lead on Portis's shot.
Bucks shooting 38.3% from the floor.
Psst, hey guys: the #1 seed is still up in the air.
15-0 run helps.
Bucks go on a 15-0 run. Giannis jumping as much on the bench as if he would have played.
Bucks now up 6, 66-61.
Finish strong!
Ingles drains a 3 and gets a T.
They take Lopez out and the Bulls go on a run.
Meyers Leonard couldn't stop me going to the rim.
Bucks cannot let Beverly get in their heads.
76-79 Bucks, at the end of the 3rd.
Bucks up 3 after the third.
If they wouldn't have had to play AJ Green is a game they'd like to win, they'd be up more. He was a turnstile at the end of the third. But without Giannis, Middleton, Connaughton, and Allen they have to play him some minutes.
AJ Green has been useless.
Nice block by Lopez!
Jrue Holiday is good.
Matthews with a 3!
What a shot by Matthews!
