The Milwaukee Bucks have lost three games in a row and are now 17-24 on the season. Indeed, time is running out for them to turn the season around and get back into the Eastern Conference playoff picture. Fortunately for them, they are playing the Atlanta Hawks on Monday afternoon, the team that they trail by two games for the 10th and final seed in the conference.
Even more fortunate, the Bucks injury report is relatively clean and they should have their full rotation of players available. Despite there being 41 games left in the 2025-26 NBA season, this game has all the feelings of a “must-win” contest as Milwaukee needs to start stringing together wins.

The Bucks have listed the following two players as out against the Hawks on Monday:
Alex Antetokounmpo (G-League, two-way)
Taurean Prince (neck surgery)
Fortunately for Milwaukee, players like Kyle Kuzma and Myles Turner, who were listed on their injury report last week due to illnesses, do not seem to be affected by their ailments any longer.
Additionally, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who had been listed on the injury report in each of the past two games with a sprained ankle, is no longer listed.
Atlanta has the following players listed as out for their matchup with the Bucks:
N’Faly, Dante (torn ACL)
RayJ Dennis (coach’s decision)
Nikola Djurisic (G-League, on assignment)
Kristaps Porzingis (Achilles tendonitis)
Zaccharie Risacher (bone contusion in left knee)
This will be the Bucks’ first time facing the Hawks since Atlanta traded their franchise cornerstone, Trae Young, to the Washington Wizards.
Like Milwaukee, the Hawks have lost three games in a row and are hoping to hold onto their playoff spot. Though with 41 games left to play, there is plenty of time for the Bucks, and other teams, to catch them.
