Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo missed Monday night's game vs. the LA Clippers with left achilles tendinitis, and is listed as questionable for Wednesday night's game vs. the Golden State Warriors with the same injury. Despite Antetokounmpo's absence, the Bucks were able to defeat the Clippers behind big games from Damian Lillard and Bobby Portis.

After two days off, the Warriors are looking to bounce back from their blowout loss vs. the Boston Celtics. This was a very poor showing for Golden State, but one they hope to quickly move on from with a win over Milwaukee.

With several teams struggling in front of them in the Western Conference standings, the Warriors have a real opportunity to climb out of the play-in picture and secure a playoff spot. They will of course have to do their part, which is winning games, but they are getting some help in front of them - most notably from the Dallas Mavericks who have cooled off quite a bit.

This game against Milwaukee will be a big test for Golden State, especially if Antetokounmpo is able to go. The Warriors should be recharged after a couple days off, and they should also be motivated after that blowout loss in Boston.

The Warriors and Bucks will tip-off at 7:00 PM PST in Golden State on Wednesday night.
