  • Kawhi Leonard (knee) still out for Game 6 Friday
    Kawhi Leonard (right knee inflammation) will remain sidelined for Game 6 against the Mavs on Friday.

    Advice: Kawhi will be sidelined once again, and if they aren’t able to win on the road, then Kawhi’s season will be over. Amir Coffey will continue to start in his place, though he only scored three points in 27 minutes in Game 5. Rotoworld 37 minutes ago

    Advice: Leonard continues to deal with a knee injury and will be unavailable for a third consecutive game Friday. If the Clippers win Friday's matchup and force a Game 7, it's unclear whether Leonard would be available for that win-or-go-home matchup. Rotowire.com 38 minutes ago

    Khris Middleton (right ankle sprain) and Patrick Beverley (right oblique muscle strain) will play in Game 6 against the Pacers on Thursday.

  • Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) officially out
    Giannis Antetkounmpo (left soleus strain) has been ruled out for Game 6 against Indiana on Thursday.

    Advice: As expected, Giannis will remain sidelined for Game 6. Bobby Portis is coming off of a 29-point performance and should continue to start in his place. It is unclear if Giannis will be able to return for a potential Game 7. Rotoworld 50 minutes ago
     
  • Ruled out for Game 6
    Antetokounmpo (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers.

    Advice: Antetokounmpo was doubtful for Thursday's matchup, but he went through pregame warmups and was considered a game-time decision. However, he never shed his doubtful tag and will be unavailable for a ninth consecutive game. If the Bucks win Game 6 and keep their season alive, Antetokounmpo could be in the mix to return to action. Despite Antetokounmpo's absence, Milwaukee will get a boost for Thursday's matchup since Damian Lillard (Achilles) has been cleared to play. Rotowire.com 51 minutes ago
     
  • Considered game-time decision
    Antetokounmpo (calf) is considered a game-time decision for Thursday's Game 6 against Indiana, Pat Boylan of Bally Sports Indiana reports.

    Advice: Antetokounmpo officially remains doubtful for Thursday's matchup, but reports ahead of tipoff have suggested that the forward is in the mix to return to the court. However, coach Doc Rivers said during his pregame press conference that Antetokounmpo is more doubtful than Damian Lillard (Achilles), who is also a game-time decision. Even though Antetokounmpo would give the Bucks a spark as they attempt to extend their season, it's possible his playing time is monitored if he's cleared to suit up.

  • Could return Thursday
    Antetokounmpo (calf) is working to try to make a return for Thursday's Game 6 against the Pacers, but it's unclear whether he'll be able to do so, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

    Advice: Both Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard (Achilles) are attempting to return to action as the Bucks try to keep their season alive Thursday. However, while Lillard has been upgraded to questionable, Antetokounmpo remains doubtful for now. Antetokounmpo's potential return would give the Bucks a significant boost on the road in Game 6, but it's also possible he'd face some limitations after missing the last eight matchups.
