The Milwaukee Bucks will look for a win over the neighboring Chicago Bulls on Friday, potentially having to do so without Giannis Antetokounmpo.

A frustrating and busy stretch of the season for the Milwaukee Bucks continues on Friday night with the final matchup of an appropriately frustrating season series.

As the Bucks make the short trip to the United Center to face the Chicago Bulls, they find themselves having to win in order to avoid the embarrassment of losing the season series against one of the NBA’s very worst teams.

To make matters more difficult in that regard, it seems likely the Bucks will have to do so without the help of their star player on Friday night.

Giannis Antetokounmpo rolled his ankle in the first half of Wednesday’s home loss to the LA Clippers and has officially been termed as doubtful for this contest with the Bulls.

The Bucks certainly aren’t alone in terms of injury problems, though, as the Bulls will definitely be without Kris Dunn and Zach LaVine, while Lauri Markkanen, Paul Zipser and Antonio Blakeney may all potentially miss out too.

With all of that in mind, let’s take a closer look at the action ahead, and see which team can prevail in this meeting of local rivals on Friday night.
