    Malik Beasley Sounds Off on Milwaukee Bucks’ Big Win Vs. Toronto Raptors Amid Injury Woes

    On a night that the Milwaukee Bucks needed their other players to step up amid Giannis Antetokounmpo’s injury absence, it was Malik Beasley who answered the call.

    Damian Lillard was Milwaukee’s best player of the evening as the seven-time All-Star dropped a massive 37-point, 12-assist double-double, but you could say that this was to be expected from Dame with his superstar partner out of commission.

    Beasley, however, went off on a career night to help lead the Bucks to a 128-112 win over the Toronto Raptors.

    Milwaukee Bucks’ Injury Woes

    Giannis was ruled out earlier in the day due to a calf injury. The extent of his injury remains unclear and at this point, his status for Milwaukee’s upcoming back-to-back set on Thursday and Friday is up in the air.

    Joining him on the sidelines against the Raptors is Jae Crowder. The veteran swingman suffered a groin injury against the Orlando Magic on Friday and unfortunately, he will now need to undergo surgery. Crowder is expected to miss the next two months because of the injury.

    As if those weren’t enough, Milwaukee also lost MarJon Beauchamp in the second quarter of Wednesday’s showdown. The second-year wing was unable to return after spraining his ankle. His status moving forward is also unknown at this point.

    Amid his team’s injury problems, Malik Beasley stepped it up in a major way. The 26-year-old went off for 30 points on eight triples to help lead Milwaukee to a victory.

    After the win, Beasley was asked to share his thoughts on the Bucks not having Giannis, and then losing Beauchamp during the game. Beasley made sure the reporter would not forget about Crodwer’s absence:

    “Jae Crowder, too. We’re still thinking about you, brother. We love you. Keep healing,” Beasley said.

    “We just got resilient. We’re a deep team. I think that we wanna be where we wanna be. We still got to learn about a lot of things. I think we’re a great team. We just gotta keep growing and learning from each other.”

    Wednesday’s win was definitely a step in the right direction for a Bucks team that’s still trying to establish its identity early in the season.
