Milwaukee Bucks vs San Antonio Spurs: Injury Report, Predicted Lineups and Starting 5s - May 10th, 2021 | NBA Season 2020-21

The red-hot Milwaukee Bucks will take on the struggling San Antonio Spurs at AT&T Center on Monday. The teams have split their first two games of the season heading into their third and final matchup.

It has been a difficult last two weeks for the San Antonio Spurs, who have won just once in their last seven games. After snapping a five-game losing streak on Friday, the Spurs lost again the next night in a 124-102 rout at the hands of the Portland Trail Blazers.

DeMar DeRozan has a huge responsibility as the lone star in this squad and has been impressive lately. If only his team could complement his efforts with a win.

Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Bucks couldn’t be happier with having a winning streak at a crucial time in the season. With only five games left, the Bucks could head into the postseason with a 10-game winning streak if they win all of them and carry that momentum into the postseason.

This will be Giannis Antetokounmpo’s last few games to make a statement on his MVP campaign.
