Sitting atop the Eastern Conference standings, the Miwaukee Bucks will be without All-Stars Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jrue Holiday for Tuesday’s game against the Magic in Orlando.

Antetokounmpo is out with a non-COVID illness, while Holiday is sidelined by a sore neck.

Along with Antetokounmpo – who ranks fourth in the NBA in scoring (31.2) and second in rebounding (11.9) entering Tuesday — and Holiday (19.9 points per game), Milwaukee won’t have guards Goran Dragic (sore left knee) or Wesley Matthews. Matthews will miss a seventh consecutive game because of a strained right calf.

For the Magic, Wendell Carter Jr. (left hip) and Gary Harris (sore left adductor) are questionable for Tuesday’s game.
