Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo will be sitting out Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns due to left hamstring soreness. This marks his first absence from a game since March 4, when he was sidelined with a left Achilles issue.
While Antetokounmpo will be missing from the lineup, the Bucks will see the return of wing player Khris Middleton, who is set to start after being out for over a month with a left ankle sprain.
Currently, the Bucks hold a one-game lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers for the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference standings. Antetokounmpo's absence will undoubtedly impact the team's performance, but Middleton's return will provide a boost to the lineup.
