MIL vs NO Preview
Last Meeting ( Feb 4, 2026 ) New Orleans 137, Milwaukee 141
The Milwaukee Bucks are attempting to limit the noise surrounding the health and cloudy future of their superstar by taking care of matters on the court.
Playing without two-time NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Bucks will bid for their sixth win in seven games on Friday when they return from the All-Star break to face the host New Orleans Pelicans.
Sidelined since Jan. 23, Antetokounmpo was expected to miss four-to-six weeks with a strained right calf. It will be exactly four weeks on Friday.
"I'm healthy today, I just got to check the boxes," Antetokounmpo said on NBA Today earlier in the week. "I gotta play 1-on-1, 3-on-3, 5-on-5. The moment I do that, that can be the next game."
The Bucks lost their first three games without Antetokounmpo before picking up mostly positive results over their last six games, including a 141-137 overtime decision versus New Orleans on Feb. 4 in Milwaukee
Ryan Rollins erupted for 27 points and AJ Green had 20 in that game to help the Bucks overcome a sizzling display by the Pelicans' Trey Murphy III, who highlighted his career-high 44-point performance with a franchise-best 12 3-pointers.
Milwaukee spread the wealth in its last game before the break, with seven players scoring in double digits in a 110-93 victory over the host Oklahoma City Thunder on Feb. 12.
Ousmane Dieng recorded his first career double-double after collecting a season-high 19 points and 11 rebounds against his former team in the Thunder. Green had 17 points and Bobby Portis added 15 to go along with 12 boards for the Bucks.
"We're playing for Milwaukee," Portis told Sirius XM NBA Radio. "I'm playing for Milwaukee. I take pride in being a Buck. I love the city of Milwaukee. They call me the mayor of Milwaukee."
The Pelicans rebounded from their overtime loss to the Bucks by winning two of their final three games before the All-Star break.
Murphy scored 19 points in New Orleans' 123-111 home loss to the Miami Heat on Feb. 11 before exiting the contest with soreness in his right shoulder. Murphy, who averages a team-best 22.1 points and 1.5 steals per game, is expected to return to the court for Friday's game.
Jeremiah Fears and Derik Queen have fared well during their rookie seasons, with the former averaging 13.2 points while the latter is contributing 12.2 points to go along with team-best averages in rebounds (7.2) and assists (4.1).
Queen, however, got the last laugh in the NBA Rising Stars competition as he helped Team Vince defeat Fears' Team Melo in the title game.
Both players are ready to take the experience of playing in that spotlight into the second half of the Pelicans' season.
"We're gonna come back a lot more confident," Fears said on the Pelicans podcast. "We're gonna be around (our teammates). We're just gonna continue to keep working and it's going to open our eyes for sure."
Said Queen: "I'm excited to come back. We've got three home games. Win those three and get back on the right track."
