Milwaukee Bucks Declare Two All-Stars Out for Tuesday's Game Against Orlando Magic

The Milwaukee Bucks will be without their two biggest stars for tonight's game against the Orlando Magic. The team officially declared Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday out on Tuesday's edition of the NBA Injury Report.

The Bucks have updated their injury report for tonight vs. Orlando.

OUT:
Wesley Matthews (right calf strain)
Goran Dragic (left knee soreness)
Jrue Holiday (neck soreness)
Giannis Antetokounmpo (non-COVID illness)

Antetokounmpo was previously probable with right knee soreness.

Antetokounmpo will miss the matchup with an illness, and Holiday will sit with neck soreness. Both played extensively in the Bucks' 117-111 win over the Washington Wizards on Sunday, so fans probably don't have anything to worry about long term. Both players have been largely healthy and reliable this season: Holiday has appeared in 53 of a possible 64 games this season, and Antetokounmpo is right behind him at 52.

The Bucks are an NBA-best 46-18, and the Orlando Magic's 27-38 record is the third-worst in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks likely hope they can take care of business tonight by relying on Brook Lopez and Khris Middleton.

Antetokounmpo and Holiday's next chance to see the court will be on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets.
