The Milwaukee Bucks desperately need to start putting together strings of wins in order to salvage what has been, to put it mildly, a disappointing season. They are currently 18-26 on the year and sit in 11th place in the Eastern Conference, outside the NBA Playoff picture, even the play-in tournament.
On Tuesday night, the Bucks are taking on the Philadelphia 76ers, who are 24-21 and in sixth place in the East. Milwaukee has not played since Friday night at home because the Dallas Mavericks could not travel to Wisconsin due to severe weather in Texas.
Unfortunately, the extra days off have not done anything to improve the Bucks injury report.

As fans know all too well, the Bucks are facing the reality of playing without Giannis Anetokounmpo. The 10-time All-Star strained his calf last week, and there is no timetable for his return.
As such, there are now four players listed as out on the Bucks injury report:
Alex Antetokounmpo (G-League/two-way)
Giannis Antenokounmpo (calf strain)
Taurean Prince (neck surgery)
Kevin Porter Jr. (oblique strain)
As of this morning, the 76ers have not released their own injury report for the game.
That being said, three current Philadelphia players have recently been listed as day-to-day due to previous circumstances:
Joel Embiid: left knee injury management
Paul George: left knee injury management
MarJon Beauchamp: two-way contract
The former Bucks first round pick, Beauchamp, recently signed his two-way contract with the 76ers a couple of days ago on January 25.
Philadelphia is coming off of a 37-point loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Monday night. Neither Embiid nor George played in that game due to injury management, presumably because it was the first game of a back-to-back for the 76ers.
It will not be surprising if both players are available to play against the Bucks tonight.
