With Grayson Allen eligible, the #Bucks have a “normal” starting lineup tonight – Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday, Bobby Portis and Allen. – 9:34 PM

Tonight is on national 📺, which may help Jrue Holiday’s all-star case:
“Now he’s on a team…where they’ve won. They’re on TV most of the time so we all get to see him more and his resume starts looking sexier than it did when he was in New Orleans.”

Jimmy Butler actually sort of looking for his shots to start this game tonight, scoring 10 points on 4/5 FGs. Butler had 22 points on 7/8 FGs Wednesday vs Knicks. Miami leads 28-19 through one quarter of play. – 8:40 PM

Fred Katz @FredKatz
Tom Thibodeau says he’s rolling with the same starting lineup today against the Bucks:
Kemba Walker
Evan Fournier
RJ Barrett
Julius Randle
Mitchell Robinson – 8:35 PM

Fred Katz @FredKatz
Nerlens Noel will play tonight, Tom Thibodeau says. “We have everyone,” Thibodeau says. – 8:30 PM

Steve Popper @StevePopper
Nerlens is a go tonight so Knicks have everyone (except Rose) – 8:30 PM

After a week of a lot of Lakers fans here Sunday, a lot of Knicks fans here Wednesday . . . not so many (any?) Clippers fans here tonight. Clippers take the court to indifference. – 7:47 PM

Brady Hawk @BradyHawk305
Feels like a Bam Adebayo game tonight
Even though they’re facing drop, this isn’t a Knicks defense that has guards dying on every screen with DHO’s for Duncan Robinson
They’re going to try and take him out
{Enter Bam on the pocket pass} – 7:35 PM

Milwaukee Bucks @Bucks
Grab your coffee & study up!!

“I wouldn’t say that I’m necessarily underappreciated because basketball, it is a game and it is a sport but it is also entertainment. And I’m not flashy.” – Jrue Holiday Will the coaches send the #Bucks guard to his first #AllStar game in 9 years? jsonline.com/story/sports/n… – 6:23 PM

“His resume starts looking sexier than it did when he was in New Orleans.”- Dwyane Wade
“He’s playing an all-star level basketball…you can never find a point guard nowadays that can do it both ways.”- Giannis
#Bucks guard Jrue Holiday has made his case

#Cavs Darius Garland calls win over Milwaukee a ‘little appetizer’ for what the future could hold
“It shows that we’re not any slouch. You can’t just come to Cleveland and roll over us.”

Game 50 tonight in Milwaukee and if the Hawks beat the Celtics, the #Knicks would find themselves in 12th place in the East before they tip-off (10 pm ET). – 4:56 PM
