The Milwaukee Bucks had a fully healthy team for one game. They put up 150 points in their crushing defeat of the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday night. Unfortunately, Sixth Man of the Year candidate Bobby Portis suffered a knee sprain in the victory. As a result, Portis will be out for an extended period of time. With Serge Ibaka away from the team and all but demanding a trade, the Bucks find themselves lacking depth in their front court.
Milwaukee Bucks' key F/C Bobby Portis has suffered an MCL sprain in his right knee and will miss some time, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

Bucks Fans React to the Bobby Portis News on Social Media
For a long time now, the Bucks have been linked to Jae Crowder, who himself is demanding a trade away from the Phoenix Suns. As one might expect, the Portis news has fans calling for the team to make a deal sooner rather than later. They also expressed frustration with all the injuries Milwaukee has suffered.
Immeasurable pain 😔🙁 https://t.co/QGCqR2sDaV

Trying my bestest not to become upset with the Bobby Portis injury. Guess it’s time for Giannis to box out

Bucks badly need another big man. Can’t rely on only Giannis and Brook. https://t.co/00xlQmxBe7
