Fri Apr 04 01:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Bucks Star Giannis Antetokounmpo Probable to Play Against Sixers Despite Foot Sprain

**Philadelphia, PA** – Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as probable for Thursday night’s game against the Philadelphia 76ers despite a foot sprain, according to the team’s injury report. While the injury has earned him a spot on the report, the two-time MVP is expected to suit up for the crucial matchup at the Wells Fargo Center.

The game marks the fourth and final meeting between the two teams this season. The Sixers have struggled recently, providing opponents with an opportunity to rest key players. However, with the Bucks vying for a higher playoff seeding, resting Antetokounmpo isn’t currently deemed necessary.

Antetokounmpo, who recently missed a game against the Denver Nuggets, has averaged 33 points, eight assists, and eight rebounds over the Bucks’ last three games. His performance in previous matchups against the Sixers has been impactful; he scored 34 points and grabbed 15 rebounds in a Bucks victory earlier this season. Even in his absence during a previous encounter, the Bucks still managed a win.

The Bucks currently hold a 41-34 record, sitting in sixth place in the Eastern Conference, one game behind the Detroit Pistons. Tip-off for Thursday’s game is scheduled for 7 PM ET.
