The last few times Giannis Antetokounmpo has been absent, the Bucks have suffered on the court, which is why one of his main partners, such as Khris Middleton, must shoulder the team with the mission of being able to win this Thursday.

In two of the last five games, Joel Embiid's performance has been more than outstanding with 40 points in those games, which is why the more contact he has with the ball and the opportunity to make shots from the field, the closer the Sixers could be to pulling off the upset.

22 Khris Middleton, small forward; 25 Serge Ibaka, small forward; 9 Bobby Portis, center; 21 Jrue Holiday, point guard; 7 Grayson Allen, point guard.

12 Tobias Harris, small forward; 22 Matisse Thybulle, small forward; 21 Joel Embiid, center; 0 Tyrese Maxey, point guard; 14 Dany Green, point guard.

With three consecutive home games before the break, the Milwaukee Bucks want to say goodbye to their fans this week with a win that will help them regain confidence, due to a certain irregularity they have shown during the last few games.

In the last game before the break, the Philadelphia 76ers will seek to give a blow of authority and defeat the NBA champion on the road, with the mission to remain in the fight for the first places in the Eastern Conference.

The Philadelphia 76ers vs Milwaukee Bucks match will be played at the Firsev Forum, in Milwaukee, United States. The kick-off is scheduled at 8:35 pm ET.
