On Sunday evening, the Milwaukee Bucks will host Jalen Brunson and the New York Knicks in Wisconsin.

For the game, they cold be without their best player, as two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo is on the injury report.

Antetokounmpo missed the team's last game, so this would be his second straight out of the starting lineup (if he doesn't play).

Via Tommy Beer: "The Bucks have listed Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Knicks.

Giannis did not play in Friday’s loss to the Raptors."
