The Milwaukee Bucks will kick off their post-All-Star break play when they travel to the Motor City to take on the suddenly rebuilding Detroit Pistons Thursday night.

The All-Star break has come to a close and the Milwaukee Bucks are set to return to action to play the Detroit Pistons Thursday night at Little Caesars Arena.

When we last saw the Bucks in action, they suffered a rare lapse when they fell to the Indiana Pacers in a 118-111 defeat that served as their eighth loss of the season.

Of course, that loss came without superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, which marked the first loss the Bucks have suffered in the six games they’ve been without the reigning MVP.

By all accounts, Antetokounmpo looks set to return to action after missing the last two contests following the birth of his newborn son, Liam, last week.

The Pistons, meanwhile, will enter the proceedings looking like a far different team than the Bucks have come into contact with over the last couple of seasons.

So without further ado, let’s look ahead to what to watch for as the Bucks get back into the rhythm of things when they take on the Detroit Pistons Thursday night.
