Time: 7:30 p.m. EST

Coverage: TNT

This will be the third matchup of the season between Toronto and Milwaukee, as well as the second matchup this week, after the two faced off on Tuesday. The results was a 124-113 win for the Raptors, so the Bucks will look to bounce back tonight.

In the game on Tuesday, Kyle Lowry left the game with an ankle injury. He is currently listed as questionable to go tonight. Fred VanVleet stepped up big in his absence, leading the Raptors with 33 points and 7 assists while hitting 5 shots from downtown. Pascal Siakam also stepped up a and did a little bit of everything. He finished the game with 23 points, 13 rebounds and 6 assists.

For the Bucks, it’s no surprise that Giannis Antetokounmpo was the high-point man, with 34. He also added 10 rebounds, 8 assists and 5 steals. He did his part, but there wasn’t much assistance from his teammates. One Bucks player that did step up off the bench was Pat Connaughton, who was second on the team in scoring with 20 points. The Bucks have really missed the play of Jrue Holiday, who has missed the past five games with COVID-19. Milwaukee has lost four straight games in his absence, and he is listed as questionable for tonight.
