The 2025 NBA Eastern Conference All-Star starter is probable to play. Giannis will likely suit up. He's made his way on the injury list, citing a right patella tendinopathy ailment, which he's dealt with since the beginning of the season.

However, Giannis hasn't been limited by it much. The "Greek Freak" has played 36 of the team's 42 games, averaging 31.3 points, 12.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists, shooting 60.3%.
