Grimes out, Embiid, PG available for Sixers-Bucks

UPDATE 7 p.m. ET: Quentin Grimes has been downgraded to out for Tuesday hosting the Bucks, listed with a right ankle sprain. Joel Embiid remains questionable and Paul George is still probable (both for left knee injury management) with just over an hour before tipoff. It’s fitting that someone got dinged up in the worst […]

Bucks Trade Candidate: Malik Monk

While we have looked at some of the biggest names in the trade market, including Ja Morant and Michael Porter Jr., there are other avenues Bucks GM Jon Horst could pursue to improve the Bucks this season and beyond.

Milwaukee Bucks vs. Philadelphia 76ers Preview & Game Thread: Free falling

The Milwaukee Bucks head east for a road trip that will hopefully end the bad vibes. The first stop is Philadelphia to face the 76ers. Milwaukee lost the previous matchup 116-101 on December 5th; the Bucks didn’t have Giannis then, and won’t have him now. Where We’re At My colleague Morgan said it best in […]

Sixers host Giannis-less Bucks to close back-to-back

Just over 24 hours removed from being absolutely demolished by the Charlotte Hornets, the Philadelphia 76ers are back in action on Tuesday night to host the Milwaukee Bucks sans Giannis Antetokounmpo. It’s a good thing there’s a quick turnaround here. I don’t think the Sixers want more time to dwell on their last contest. On […]

Momentum Moments: Vol. 6

Volume 5 showcased resurgence, offering hope for the rest of the season. Volume 6 rips that hope out of your chest. Ineptitude, poor leadership, and crushing injury defined the past fortnight, leaving the Bucks—and their fans—reevaluating everything. @ Nuggets  The. Bucks. Are. In. Denver. And. Struggling. With. The. Altitude. They have to be—it’s the only […]

Bucks vs. Mavericks postponed due to winter storm

The Milwaukee Bucks’ game against the Dallas Mavericks was postponed due to the winter storm blanketing much of the country, preventing the Mavs from taking off for Milwaukee. Brad Townsend of the Dallas Morning News reported the development this afternoon, before the league made an official announcement. Here is their complete statement: According to Christian […]

Mavericks’ Sunday game at the Milwaukee Bucks is postponed

The Dallas Mavericks had a quick turnaround after a 116-110 loss to the Lakers Saturday night. The original plan was for the Mavericks to fly from Dallas to Milwaukee after last night’s game, for their 6 p.m. game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. The massive snowstorm affecting a significant portion of the United States […]

How Giannis Antetokounmpo’s latest injury affects Heat’s pursuit

One of the biggest stories around the NBA over the last several weeks was Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the Milwaukee Bucks. As we wrote in mid-December, the Bucks were making a futile attempt to convince themselves that they were buyers, while Antetokounmpo continued to table any formal trade request. However, that attempt wilted away in […] The post How Giannis Antetokounmpo’s latest injury affects Heat’s pursuit appeared first on Hot Hot Hoops - Miami HEAT NBA Blog .

Giannis sidelined again with calf injury

Standing in front of his locker with the assembled media after the Bucks’ comeback attempt fell short in their 102-100 loss to the shorthanded Nuggets, Giannis Antetokounmpo revealed news that Bucks fans least wanted to hear: he had injured his calf again, and he would likely be out another 4–6 weeks: “So, the next steps […]

How Giannis Antetokounmpo, Ja Morant Injuries Could Reset Trade Environment for Bulls

Frustrated All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Ja Morant have been the subject of trade chatter all year. Now, they’re both going to be hurt through this season’s impending Feb. 5 trade deadline. So how will their new injuries affect the NBA at large — and our Chicago Bulls in particular — with trade season in full swing? Antetokounmpo, a 10-time All-Star power forward, appears to be trapped on a doomed 18-26 Milwaukee Bucks roster that lacks control over most of its future draft picks an...

Milwaukee Bucks Poll: Lukewarm interest in Morant, LaVine

In this week’s Tuesday Tracker, we ran down a series of Bucks trade candidates, all of whom we’ve recently profiled. You can read more about what an offer for each guy may look like on our story stream, but in general, these polls tell us how you all feel about each guy. Here are the […]

Bucks vs. Nuggets Player Grades: Late comeback masks another putrid performance

The Bucks’ downturn continued last night, as they lost 102-100 at home to the very shorthanded Denver Nuggets, going winless against them this season. The game was certainly a weird one, with Denver getting up 23 points in the third quarter, and then all but relinquishing that lead in the fourth after a rabid Milwaukee […]

Rapid Recap: Nuggets 102, Bucks 100

The Bucks couldn’t find a way to beat the Nuggets—even without Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, Cameron Johnson, and Christian Braun—for the second time this season, losing 102-100. It’s Milwaukee’s second straight loss and sixth in their last eight games. Giannis had 22 points to lead the Bucks again, going 14/16 from the line, while Rollins […]

Mixtape: A midseason Milwaukee Bucks playlist

My family and I spent some 17 hours of our Australian summer holidays road-tripping, nothing but the open road and the music blaring through the car speakers to stimulate our senses. It was during this—somewhere in-between my country shuffle and the kids’ umpteenth play of “Golden” from KPop Demon Hunters—that the idea spawned: when you […]

Bucks Trade Candidate: Ja Morant

We’ve had quite a run of big names in this year’s trade candidate series, including a few former All-Stars like Zach LaVine and Dejounte Murray. And as you may know, the Bucks have been connected to just about everyone who might be available this deadline. So today, we tackle one of the biggest names of […]

No, the Sixers shouldn’t trade VJ Edgecombe for Giannis Antetokounmpo

After a Thursday evening win that screamed, “The Sixers are back!“ I woke up on Friday to see a trade idea thrown out that involves the Milwaukee Bucks making a deal for a certain star-in-the-making rookie… Bill Simmons, the Podfather himself in the middle of his re-apex, just dropped a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade podcast for […]

Bucks vs. Thunder Player Grades: Despite blowout loss, Anthony and Nance step up

For the third time in four games, the Milwaukee Bucks were blown out by a Western Conference team, losing 122-102 to the defending NBA champions, the Oklahoma City Thunder. Things have tumbled quickly for the Bucks; after winning five of their last seven games, they’ve now dropped four of five. Read our full summary of […]
