Milwaukee’s offense has slumped badly without Antetokounmpo this season.

Overview

Tipoff is 6:00 p.m. CST at Fiserv Forum with broadcasts on KFAA-TV, Mavs.com, NBA League Pass, and FanDuel Sports Network Wisconsin.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is out with a right calf strain and is reportedly expected to miss 4–6 weeks after leaving Friday’s loss to Denver.
Kevin Porter Jr. remains out for Milwaukee with a right oblique strain, with AJ Green listed as questionable due to illness and Gary Trent Jr. as probable; Taurean Prince remains out following neck surgery.
The Mavericks are on short rest after Saturday’s loss to the Lakers and faced a travel delay when they were unable to depart Dallas that night.
Milwaukee is 3–11 without Antetokounmpo with a marked offensive rating drop, while Dallas has won four of its last five with strong paint scoring and improved three-point shooting.
