Bobby Portis starting for Milwaukee Saturday night in place of injured Giannis Antetokounmpo
Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Bobby Portis will start Saturday in the team's game against the Charlotte Hornets.
What It Means:
On the second leg of Milwaukee's back-to-back set, Giannis Antetokounmpo is sitting out due to a left knee contusion. His absence will leave a vacancy in the starting five, one that will be filled by Portis.
Our models project Portis for 17.3 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 37.3 FanDuel points across 31.4 minutes of action.
