Bucks' Bobby Portis: Starting Thursday

Portis is in the Bucks' starting lineup against the 76ers on Thursday.

With Giannis Antetokounmpo set to miss at least one week due to a low-grade left groin strain, Portis will enter the Bucks' starting five for the first time this season. The big man started seven regular-season games for the Bucks during the 2024-25 campaign, averaging 22.1 points, 12.9 rebounds, 4.9 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1.3 steals over 34.5 minutes per game during that span.
