The Milwaukee Bucks are still preparing for Game 3 against the Indiana Pacers with the distinct possibility of not have cornerstone superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo available. The former back-to-back MVP has not played all series long, and it does not sound like he’s making significant enough progress to return on Friday for Game 3.
Right now, though, the Bucks are dealing with another significant dilemma as Khris Middleton’s status for Friday’s crucial showdown in Indiana has suddenly been cast with doubt.
Milwaukee Bucks News: Khris Middleton Dealing With New Injury
Middleton sustained an ankle injury in their Game 2 loss on Tuesday, but he was still able to remain on the floor. The three-time All-Star, however, was unable to practice on Thursday, which has resulted in him being added to the injury report for Friday’s contest.
Unfortunately for Bucks fans, Middleton is now in serious danger of missing Game 3 after he was officially listed as questionable with a right ankle sprain:
