Porter Jr. has been officially ruled out by Milwaukee due to right knee synovitis, marking his third missed game in a row.
As Porter Jr. remains out, Rollins, Cam Thomas, and Gary Trent Jr. are all expected to maintain expanded roles.
Additionally, Giannis Antetokounmpo will not play for the Bucks, sidelined with a left knee hyperextension and bone bruise. Gary Harris, however, is listed as probable and is anticipated to play despite a left groin contusion.
