The Milwaukee Bucks hope to start a winning streak when they return home to face the New York Knicks.

The Bucks remain shorthanded as Brook Lopez remains out with a back injury, Donte DiVincenzo and Jrue Holiday with ankle ailments, and  Khris Middleton placed in the NBA's health and safety protocols after a positive COVID-19 test. Despite that, the Bucks were able to get back to their winning ways earlier this week when Giannis Antetokounmpo registered a triple-double in a 117-89 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

The Knicks lost to the Indiana Pacers 111-98 on the road despite strong performances from RJ Barrett and Julius Randle. 

The opening tip is set for 6:30 p.m.
