The Milwaukee Bucks and the Charlotte Hornets face off on Thursday in what could be a game that will feature a handful of absentees on both ends. The Hornets, in particular, are dealing with a handful of injuries, which will significantly decrease their chances against a powerhouse Milwaukee side.
Charlotte Hornets Dealing With Slew of Injuries
The official injury report for Friday’s game is out and it’s looking pretty brutal for Charlotte. For starters, point guard Terry Rozier will miss his sixth straight game due to a groin injury. Gordon Hayward, who missed the Hornets’ last game, is questionable to play against Milwaukee due to a right hamstring strain.
It does not end there for the Hornets. Rookie sensation Brandon Miller is also questionable with a left ankle sprain, while Cody Martin and Frank Ntilikina remain out.
Charlotte will get some reinforcement in the form of Miles Bridges, though, who is set to return following a season-long suspension.
Milwaukee Bucks Also Have Injury Problems
Milwaukee, on the other hand, could be without Giannis Antetokounmpo after the two-time MVP was listed as questionable due to a calf problem. This could be his second game out after missing Wednesday’s win over the Toronto Raptors.
Jae Crowder remains out, while MarJon Beauchamp is questionable after spraining his ankle against Toronto.
