Milwaukee Bucks injury report: Is Giannis playing? What is Lillard's status? Game time, TV channel, odds

The Milwaukee Bucks will attempt to win their fourth straight game, and third in a row out of the all-star break when they host the Miami Heat this evening at Fiserv Forum.

The Bucks (31-24) look to stay in the mix for home court advantage in the first round of the playoff while the Heat (26-28) are trying to stay in the mix for the playoffs.

It looks like the Bucks will be at close to full strength, as Damian Lillard is probable to play after missing Friday's game in Washington to manage a strained hamstring. Taurean Prince also missed the Wizards game and is probable to return to action.

It is probable that Antetokounmpo plays his third straight game. He missed six straight games before the all-star break, the final five of which as the result of a strained left calf. He has played 24 and 22 minutes, respectively, the last two games.
