The latest Milwaukee Bucks Daily is here as members of Team USA, including Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton, look to the prospect of taking on Greece and Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.

In today’s edition of Milwaukee Bucks Daily, Team USA looks to their clash against Greece and Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, we look at how the five Bucks players have fared so far at this year’s World Cup, and much more.

After being tested the most by Turkey coming out of the first group stage at the World Cup, Team USA will look for any ways to slow down Antetokounmpo and Greece. Greece, on the other hand, will rely on Antetokounmpo to take down a far more limited Team USA than we’ve seen in years past.
