The Bucks roster is at 12 now. Sandro & Lindell don’t count towards the 15 man roster as 2-ways, nor does Greg Monroe’s 10-day. You’re required to have at least 13 players to add a 10-day contract so they’d need to add another player if they want to give Monroe a 2nd 10-day – 6:56 PM

And look at that. There is the Bucks newest addition, Serge Ibaka, warming up at the same time as Bobby Portis. pic.twitter.com/VpLgYdOe6q6:52 PM

Kenyon Martin: “Listen, Giannis is the new LeBron. He can be in the MVP convo every season and the only reason you don’t give it to him is because someone else is playing out of their mind. I feel like Milwaukee is still the favorite to come out the East.” basketballnews.com/stories/kenyon…6:51 PM

#Bucks head coach Mike Budenholzer said Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) is out for tonight. He rolled it in Phoenix.
Budenholzer would not rule him out for tomorrow or vs. Philly – Antetokounmpo just not ready to go tonight. – 6:21 PM

Frank Vogel was asked whether Carmelo Anthony, out with a hamstring strain, could have made a difference in close losses to Portland and GSW. “We have missed Carmelo Anthony. … I definitely think those two games could have been different.” – 4:50 PM
Jim Owczarski @JimOwczarski
#Cavs big man Jarrett Allen was picked by Adam Silver to replace injured #76ers guard James Harden for the all-star game. Makes sense – he’s deserving, already in town & in the skills challenge – but #Bucks Jrue Holiday is passed over again.

Will the Bucks score more or less than the Trail Blazers off the bench?

Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
I asked Mikal Bridges if he ever played with/against Aaron Holiday before the NBA. He did. As a Philly kid, Bridges was a big fan of Jrue. In an EYBL game, he did a triple check on the opposing guard next to him. Bridges asked someone “why does he look like Jrue?” Got his answer. – 3:05 PM
Christos Tsaltas @Tsaltas46
Thanasis Antetokounmpo is the guy who brings the fire on and off rhe floor at Bucks. To be a good influence for his teammates is the most important part of his role.
“Team is above all”, Thanasis said. #FearTheDeer @SdnaGr sdna.gr/mpasket/933692…2:25 PM
