The Milwaukee Bucks are looking to clinch the top spot in East Group B of the 2023 NBA In-Season Tournament. The Bucks travel to South Beach to visit the Miami Heat. Let's take a look at the latest Milwaukee Bucks' injury report for an update on Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard's availability.
Milwaukee has five players in their injury report for the final group stage game of the In-Season Tournament. Marques Bolden, Jae Crowder, TyTy Washington Jr. and Lindell Wigginton are listed as out, while Khris Middleton is questionable.
Antetokounmpo and Lillard are not om the injury report, which means they are available to play. If the Bucks beat Miami, they will advance to the knockouts with a 4-0 record.

Marques Bolden, TyTy Washington Jr. and Lindell Wigginton are assigned to the Milwaukee Bucks' NBA G League affiliate, the Wisconsin Herd. Jae Crowder, meanwhile, continues to recover from a left adductor surgery, with no timetable for a return.
Khris Middleton is dealing with left Achilles tendinitis, which caused him to leave early in the Bucks' win over the Washington Wizards on Nov. 24. Middleton missed the game against the Portland Trail Blazers two days later, so his status for Tuesday is up in the air.
Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard have been the two best players for the Bucks this season, as expected. They endured a tough start to the season but have been playing well, winning seven of their last 10 games.
