Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) remains on the injury report but has been tagged as probable for the Friday night showdown with the Detroit Pistons. Currently, the Bucks are ahead in the season series after beating the Pistons twice, but their final two games are both against each other. That means Antetokounmpo and company will need all hands on deck to make sure they stay in the fifth seed. If, for some reason, Antetokounmpo doesn't end up playing,
Bobby Portis would likely move into the starting five.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (illness) will suit up for Thursday's matchup with the Pelicans. The multi-time All-Star has appeared on the injury due to numerous injuries throughout the year. But, this time, he's listed because of an illness. With that said, the Pelicans are shorthanded, so Antetokounmpo may ride the bench more than usual if the score gets out of hand. If that's the case,
Bobby Portis, who recently returned from a lengthy suspension, could be spending even more time on the floor.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (shoulder) is considered probable for Thursday's clash against the New Orleans Pelicans. After helping Milwaukee to a remarkable comeback victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Tuesday night, Antetokounmpo is back on the injury report with a shoulder issue. Nevertheless, he is expected to be in the lineup. The two-time MVP has recorded triple-doubles in each of his last three appearances and can establish a new career-high for a single season if he posts another one over the final few games of the campaign. He is currently on 10 triple-doubles through 65 outings, averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, 6.4 assists, and 1.2 blocks.

Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) has been listed as probable for Tuesday's clash against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Bucks are expected to have Antetokounmpo back in the lineup after he missed Sunday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans with a minor knee issue. The game marked the second leg of a back-to-back, so the team was likely just managing Antetokounmpo's workload. Antetokounmpo has recorded triple-doubles in each of his last two outings, including a historic 35-17-20 stat line in a victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.
