A rare Saturday afternoon game. Hornets are 4-7. 3-3 at home. They've lost 2 straight. Bucks are 4-8, 2 game winning streak, just 1-5 on the road. The lone road win was opening night in Philly.

No word on if Dame is back. Rollins is probably back.

Let's keep it going.

Trade talk should remain in the trade thread. Thanks!

Afternoon games always feel like a trap for us.

Hornets have also been a trap team for us too. Weird scheduling.

5-8 would feel a lot better than 4-9.

Already bracing for the Bobby minutes

From Owczarski:

Khris Middleton (ankles) - OUT
Ryan Rollins (shoulder) - likely out, highly doubtful
Bobby Portis Jr. (elbow), AJ Green (shoulder) doubtful
Damian Lillard (concussion), doubtful to OUT

Hoping GTJ can put together back-to-back quality games.

Our entire team appears to be out again. Even more this time

Little worried about Dame possibly being out this long due to a concussion.

Eh, in the nfl it’s pretty typical to at least miss a week.

Must be one hell of a concussion for Dame. Can't rely on Giannis being Superman again. The Toronto game was promising, but we need to pump up those 3PT attempt numbers (only 35 vs. Detroit). Trent is averaging the lowest 3PT attempts per-minute of his career and that needs to change.

Giannis keep working on that jumper and free throws let’s see 65 tomorrow lol
3 in row baby

With another guard down, I wonder if Doc lets AJ Johnson get some burn this game. It'll probably end up just being more Pat C at PG or 40 min for Delon Wright, but it would be fun to see Giannis and Johnson on a fast break play.

Green's been updated to probable.

Even as someone who thinks giving AJ any non-garbage time minutes is gonna be a complete disaster, I would like to see them throw him out there for at least a couple first half minutes. Don't know if he'll even be on the flight though with the Herd playing tonight.

Most concussions are 7-10 days for full recovery. Tomorrow will be 6 days out.

Can't spell Horts w/o Honrest.

3 of Giannis' last 5 games against the Hornets have been triple-doubles. He might just like having even more usage against these guys.
