Concerning for Milwaukee that OKC was shorthanded (like tonight) when rolling to a 122-102 win at Fiserv Forum on January 21. More concerning as Giannis was available that night and it didn't prevent OKC from pulling clear. Giannis, however, has been out the past few weeks, though the Bucks have shown some surprising spunk since last week, winning four of five. Recent signee, ex-Nets G Cam Thomas, pumped in 34 points in Tuesday's win at Orlando. Though the Thunder was also minus Jalen Williams and Isaiah Hartenstein for the first meeting, as they will be tonight, they weren't minus SGA, who scored 40 in that easy OKC win, but he's now out for the rematch, so it's a decidedly under-strength Thunder this evening. Play Bucks

Caesar’s. This game sets up nicely for Jared McCain, who should be poised for 22-26 minutes off the bench. The Thunder will be without a laundry list of players, and coming off a game last night, this profiles as a spot for the newest Thunder to find his groove. McCain will face a Bucks defense that allows the third most points to spot up shooters.
