The Milwaukee Bucks will look to continue their winning ways as they look to finish their three-game road trip with a win against the Joel Embiid-less Philadelphia 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center on Sunday. After going down to the Memphis Grizzlies, Giannis Antetokounmpo & co. bounced back with a win against the formidable Minnesota Timberwolves. They will fancy their chances against the Sixers, who are 4-6 in their last ten games.

Despite the absence of their big man, the hosts managed to stay in contention. They are still a top-five unit in the East with a 33-23 record and one win less than the New York Knicks. The Bucks have two more losses than the second-placed Cleveland Cavaliers and are 36-21. The Sunday matchup will see both sides attempt to make a surge and cement their playoff spots as the regular season hits its final stretch.

What happened to Giannis Antetokounmpo and Joel Embiid?

Milwaukee had a bit of a scare with Giannis Antetokounmpo's knee issue. The forward was on the injury list ahead of the game against the Minnesota Timberwolves but did manage to play. He is listed probable against Philly, and given how he fared against Minnesota, where it appeared that he was indeed fine, chances are that the 'Greek Freak' will lace up on Sunday.

The Battle of the Bigs will have to wait. Joel Embiid is on the recovery table after successfully undergoing knee surgery earlier this month and will be sidelined for six to eight weeks. After he went down during the team's contest against the Golden State Warriors, Embiid who had earlier missed a couple of games with swelling in his knee was later revealed to have a left meniscus issue.
