The Milwaukee Bucks will be taking on the Memphis Grizzlies today as they try to get back on track. Milwaukee has lost two games in a row and three of their last four contests overall.

Milwaukee will be taking on a Grizzlies team that could be missing one of their crucial players. Star guard Ja Morant has been listed as doubtful for the contest and is in danger of missing this game.

If Morant can't go in this game, it would give the Bucks an advantage. Morant is one of the better point guards around the NBA and the Grizzlies rely on him very heavily on both ends of the floor.

For the season, the guard has averaged 20.3 points, 4.2 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.2 steals per game. Morant is the engine that keeps the Grizzlies going strong and without him, they become an entirely different team on the floor.

Milwaukee is entering this game with a few players on the injury report as well. All three stars have been listed as probable, giving a nice likelihood that they will suit up for this game.

The Bucks are playing the first of a back-to-back so we could see them all play today and then be held out tomorrow for rest. Milwaukee will be taking on the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday, a game that the team could use as a throw away right before the NBA trade deadline.
