Is Giannis playing?
Yes. Giannis Antetokounmpo is on the injury report with a new injury, which is a sprained left big toe. He began the day as probable to play vs. the Raptors.
Antetokounmpo began the season on the injury report with soreness in his lower back, and then against the Wizards he suffered a scary fall on his right hand and wrist in the fourth quarter, but remained in the game.
- Kevin Porter Jr., out (left ankle sprain) — The Bucks ruled Porter out for the game against the Raptors and at Cleveland on Oct. 26 after he suffered an ankle sprain on Oct. 22 vs. Washington. Porter is on the trip but Doc Rivers said it was not an indicator of the injury’s severity. “I don’t ever know why we have guys travel or not. I don’t think there’s anything to read into that. I guarantee you he’s not playing the next game.”
- Giannis Antetokounmpo, probable (left big toe sprain)
