The Milwaukee Bucks (19-7) will take on the Golden State Warriors (14-13) on Tuesday at Fiserv Forum at 6:30 PM CST. Milwaukee is returning home for a brief stop before they continue on a semi-arduous road trip. After playing their last two games in the state of Texas, they come home for this game before departing for Memphis on Thursday. The Bucks will come home for a stop against the Jazz on Saturday before a string of five straight road contests. With traveling comes risks, and one of those is illness. That particular designation has popped up on many Bucks injury reports in the recent weeks, and continues to do so for Tuesday’s game against the Warriors.

The Latest Bucks Injury Report
Eric Nehm of The Athletic shared the latest Bucks’ injury report on Twitter:
The Bucks have submitted their injury report for Tuesday's game against the Warriors.
OUT: Joe Ingles (left ACL surgery)
Questionable: Jrue Holiday (non-COVID illness)
Probable: Khris Middleton (left ankle sprain)— Eric Nehm (@eric_nehm) December 12, 2022
Of course, Joe Ingles will remain out as he recovers from his torn ACL. Jrue Holiday has been added to the injury report with a non-COVID illness. If he is not able to go, it will be a major blow to the Bucks’ rotation. Over the past six games, Holiday is averaging 25.0 points, 7.3 assists, and 6.3 rebounds.
The fact that Khris Middleton is probable is very promising and surprising. Middleton was held to just six minutes of play in the Bucks’ loss to the Houston Rockets due to what the team called a sprained ankle. However, here he is just a couple days later and “probable” to play. If Holiday cannot go, they will certainly need all the help they can get.
