The Detroit Pistons are gearing up for a matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks following their recent overtime win against the Miami Heat. The Bucks, coming off a victory over the Toronto Raptors, will be missing their star guard Damian Lillard, who is in concussion protocol after an injury sustained against the Boston Celtics.

Lillard's absence is significant as he was averaging impressive numbers before the injury. The Bucks are struggling with a 3-8 record and have recently faced challenges, including a six-game losing streak. The Pistons, led by Cade Cunningham, must remain vigilant despite Lillard's absence, as Giannis Antetokounmpo remains a formidable opponent.
