Giannis Antetokounmpo Injury Status For Bucks vs Warriors

The Milwaukee Bucks are in a massive fight for the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference. They are battling with both the Indiana Pacers and the Detroit Pistons for that spot.

Milwaukee is tied with Indiana for that spot right now, with the Pistons sitting just a game behind. The Bucks are trying to make sure they finish in that spot so that they get home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

In order to make sure that they finish that spot in the East standings, they have to have their best players playing in as many games as possible down the stretch.

The Bucks are taking on a very good Golden State Warriors team on Tuesday night. Golden State is also fighting for some playoff seeding of their own.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been on the injury report for the last few games. He is on it once again ahead of this matchup with the Warriors.

Bucks injury report for Tuesday vs. the Warriors:

Out:
Bobby Portis Jr. (League Suspension)
Jericho Sims (Right Thumb UCL Sprain)

Probable:
Giannis Antetokounmpo (Right Patella Tendinopathy)
Damian Lillard (Right Groin Soreness)
Gary Trent Jr. (Left Patella Tendinopathy)

Antetokounmpo continues to be listed as probable with right patella tendinopathy. He has been on the injury report with that for the last few games now that his calf injury is healed up.

The Bucks are going to need him to be healthy for as many games as possible down the stretch. Of course, the priority is for them to have him healthy for the playoffs.

Antetokounmpo missed the entire first-round playoff series against the Pacers last season, and that was a big reason why they weren't able to win.
