The Milwaukee Bucks are set to take on the Phoenix Suns tonight, aiming for their third consecutive road win and a chance to reach 11 games above .500 for the season. The Bucks (40-30) have had a strong performance away from home this season, matching their best record on the road. They face a Suns team (34-37) that has recently turned a corner, winning three of their last five games.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as probable for the game, continuing to manage soreness in his right knee but has shown resilience throughout the season. Meanwhile, Damian Lillard will sit out due to calf soreness, marking his third consecutive absence.

This matchup also features Mike Budenholzer, the former Bucks coach now helming the Suns, in his first season with the franchise after his dismissal from Milwaukee. Budenholzer's track record includes leading the Bucks to an NBA Championship, making this game particularly significant for both teams.
