The Milwaukee Bucks are officially playing out the string on a lost 2025-26 season as they host the Los Angeles Clippers (38-36) on March 29. The Bucks were officially eliminated from any form of postseason basketball with yet another blowout loss, a 32-point defeat at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs on March 28.

Milwaukee is 29-44 and is tracking toward its worst season record since winning 15 games in 2014-15.

Is Giannis playing?

No.

The Clippers game marks two weeks since Giannis Antetokounmpo suffered a hyperextension and bone bruise in his left knee after landing awkwardly following a dunk on March 15 vs. Indiana. Antetokounmpo wanted to get back into that game but relayed afterward that the message from the training staff was it was “not worth it.”

He has not been seen since, as he has struggled with being forced to sit while he believes he is healthy enough to play. On March 24, the players association issued a statement on his behalf decrying the Bucks tanking and the league not enforcing its own rules for player participation, and on March 25 NBA commissioner Adam Silver said the league would look into the situation.
