As anticipated, #Cavs Lamar Stevens was put into the starting lineup to deal with Giannis. Stevens gets the matchup early but as the players have been saying the last few days, it will be a team effort. – 8:13 PM
Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Another fun matchup for MarJon Beauchamp tonight.
He starts on Donovan Mitchell, while Jevon Carter takes Darius Garland. – 8:13 PM

#Bucks go big in the starting lineup tonight with so many in the backcourt hurt: Jevon Carter is joined by rookie MarJon Beauchamp to go with Bobby Portis, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Brook Lopez. – 7:36 PM
Chris Fedor @ChrisFedor
“He will work his way out of it”
#Cavs supporting Dylan Windler — who will be out up to six more weeks — any way they can after latest injury setback in a career that’s been derailed by them

Trade Value Rankings: Cavs in the Top 100
10. Donovan Mitchell
13. Evan Mobley
30. Darius Garland
50. Jarrett Allen
That is GOOD.

Wesley Matthews had wanted to recapture a mindset he had in Portland. Jordan Nwora admitted his offensive game has been off. Grayson Allen just seemed to find it, but now he’s hurt.
The #Bucks perimeter players have had a hard time offensively to start.

The #Bucks are one of the poorer shooting teams in the NBA to this point, and replacing the points lost from injured players has not been easy.
“…it’s a matter of just staying aggressive and keep taking ‘em.”

Just the third player in team history to hit 10 triples in a game.

#Cavs Dylan Windler will be out approx. 4-6 weeks after he recently received a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection to help treat his ankle, the team announced. He will be in a walking cast, and a therapy plan will be established to determine his next steps. – 2:10 PM
Danny Cunningham @RealDCunningham
#Cavs announce that Dylan Windler will be out the next 4-to-6 weeks after undergoing a PRP injection in his right ankle. Windler has been active for one game this season but did not play. He suffered the ankle sprain during training camp. – 2:09 PM
