The Milwaukee Bucks are coming off an impressive win or the Philadelphia 76ers, but they will be shorthanded against the New York Knicks on Wednesday evening. Khris Middleton is still dealing with COVID-19 protocols and is unlikely to play against New York, and guard Jrue Holliday is still rehabilitating from an injury, despite playing 31 minutes on Tuesday night against Philly.
The Knicks are relatively healthy, but with Nerlens Noel suffering a knee injury against the 76ers, expect to see more Taj Gibson and hopefully Mitchell Robinson. Robinson missed Monday’s game with a hip flexor injury, and if he’s unable to go, New York will have to rely on Gibson and potentially rookie Jericho Sims as their primary centers.
