Celtics, Bucks Injury Report; Will Giannis Play?

Boston and Milwaukee Injury Report

The Celtics and Bucks are set to face off on Thursday night in a battle of the top two teams in the Eastern Conference. However, the injury report could have a major impact on the outcome of the game.

The Celtics are currently listing three players on their injury report: Robert Williams III (knee), Marcus Smart (ankle), and Jaylen Brown (knee). Williams is probable to play, while Smart and Brown are questionable. Williams missed the Celtics' last game due to his knee injury, but he is expected to be back in the lineup on Thursday. Smart and Brown both played in the Celtics' last game, but they are both dealing with minor injuries that could limit their effectiveness.

The Bucks are also dealing with some injuries. Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as questionable with a left calf strain. Antetokounmpo suffered the injury in the third quarter of the Bucks' last game, and he did not return. Khris Middleton is also listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain. Middleton missed the Bucks' last game due to his ankle injury, and he is not expected to play on Thursday.

The injuries to Antetokounmpo and Middleton are a major concern for the Bucks. Antetokounmpo is the Bucks' leading scorer and rebounder, and he is one of the best players in the NBA. Middleton is the Bucks' second-leading scorer, and he is a key part of their offense. If either of these players is unable to play, it will be a major blow to the Bucks' chances of winning.

The Celtics are favored to win the game on Thursday, even if Antetokounmpo and Middleton are unable to play. However, the Bucks have a lot of talent, and they are always a threat to win. The injury report will be something to watch in the lead-up to the game, and it could have a major impact on the outcome.
