Milwaukee Bucks
What to be grateful for: A hope for health
The Milwaukee Bucks are coming off a disappointing showing during their title defense a season ago, but the hope is that this year will end differently. At the very least, the Bucks have hope that they will have a relatively healthy roster during the playoffs this time around.
A big part of that is the continued rehabilitation of Khris Middleton. He has yet to play in a game so far this season but he is getting closer and closer to a possible return. Once he does, it’ll be interesting to see if the Bucks can begin to look like their former championship version of themselves.
And with Giannis Antetokounmpo at the forefront of it all, there’s a good chance that they will be. In the Eastern Conference, it seems like it’s the Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks, and then everyone else. A healthy Bucks team would have a really good chance of making it back to the NBA Finals.
