Giannis Antetokounmpo's return from injury will give the Bucks an extra boost when the Boston Celtics face the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday. While the Bucks will be getting a boost, the Celtics will be lacking as star wing Jaylen Brown is going to miss the game due to illness according to NBA insider Marc Stein.
Brown has been the driving force behind the Celtics' success this season, playing at an MVP level in the absence of Jayson Tatum. The Celtics have surprised many people this season and have exceeded expectations. This is a developing story and will be updated as more information becomes available.
The Celtics say Jaylen Brown (illness), Neemias Quetta (rest) and Jayson Tatum (Achilles) will all miss tonight's game against Milwaukee ... while the Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo has been upgraded to questionable after a five-week absence.
