Milwaukee has ruled out Giannis as he continues to be sidelined due to a right calf strain that is expected to keep him out for multiple weeks.
With Giannis still sidelined, Portis could continue to have a larger role, along with Kyle Kuzma who is off the injury report after missing Thursday’s loss to the Raptors due to an illness.

Minnesota has listed Conley as questionable due to right Achilles tendinopathy and there is a chance that he could return from a four-game absence against the Bucks.
If Conley is unable to return and is sidelined once again on Sunday, Rob Dillingham and Bones Hyland could both continue to have increased roles.

The good news for the Timberwolves is that Edwards is off their injury report completely after he returned from a three-game absence due to foot soreness on Friday against the Thunder and he will likely have a large role again against the Bucks.
