The Milwaukee Bucks did not have the services of their star big man on Sunday as they fell to the Utah Jazz, 123-108. Lopez’s defensive presence was missed especially in the fourth quarter as the Jazz stunningly outscored Milwaukee, 40-13, in the final 12 minutes of action.
The Bucks need Lopez back as soon as possible, which is why the big question right now is this: Is Brook Lopez playing tonight vs. the Phoenix Suns?
Milwaukee Bucks Star Brook Lopez’s Injury Status Vs. Suns
Unfortunately for the Bucks, they could be without their starting center again on Tuesday night. This is after Lopez was listed as questionable to play against the Suns due to personal reasons.
The Bucks have not provided any information regarding Lopez’s current predicament under the assumption that they likely want to give him his privacy amid this personal matter. This likely also means that the team will afford Lopez with as much time as he needs to resolve whatever issue he is currently dealing with.
Lopez is now in danger of sitting out his third straight contest after missing last weekend’s back-to-back set against the Dallas Mavericks and the Jazz.
At this point, the answer to the question of is Brook Lopez playing tonight vs. the Phoenix Suns seems that it’s unlikely.
UPDATE: The Bucks have now ruled Lopez out for Tuesday’s game due to personal reasons.
