Is Giannis Antetokounmpo playing tonight? Bucks vs. 76ers time, TV channel and live stream for Saturday NBA game
The Bucks are on a 16-game winning streak that has propelled them to the top of the NBA rankings, and they don’t look like they’re slowing down any time soon.
The main reason for the Bucks’ smoldering form was their star: Giannis Antetokounmpo. Prior to that winning run, Antetokounmpo missed five straight games with left knee pain (the Bucks went 2-3); It’s been a successful party for Giannis and the Bucks ever since.
With the exception of a win against the Suns on Feb. 26 (missed due to a right quadriceps bruise), Giannis has been a big part of the Bucks’ winning streak, averaging 31.9 points, 12.0 rebounds and 5.4 assists — including 54 point-blast at home against the Clippers on February 2nd.
During their winning streak, the Bucks have beaten some of the NBA’s best teams, including the Nuggets and Celtics, and they will look to add another title contender to their list of defeated opponents when they face off against Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers.
