## Resource

The Milwaukee Bucks have won eight of 10 without Giannis Antetokounmpo available, and Kevin Porter Jr. has taken center stage in a couple back-to-back wins over the Heat and Cavaliers. But everybody else in the chase for a play-in spot has been winning, too, leaving the Bucks still in need for a lot more. Bucks reporter Jim Owczarski and host JR Radcliffe discuss why this version of the Bucks has worked, when Giannis might be back, the ultimate future for Porter in Milwaukee, Myles Turner, the schedule ahead and more.
