After winning the NBA Cup trophy last Tuesday, the Milwaukee Bucks are back to regular season business. Tomorrow they will face a huge test as they will face the Cleveland Cavaliers, who boast the best record in the Eastern Conference.
Milwaukee Bucks improved their result Record 14-11 because they had a healthier squad compared to the beginning of the season. The Cleveland Cavaliers can’t say the same because they will be playing without one of their best defensemen.
Isaac Okoro suffered a shoulder injury last Monday in the second half of the Cleveland Cavaliers’ victory over the Brooklyn Nets. According to Ryan Lewis of the Akron Beacon Journalprevious no. The No. 5 pick will be re-evaluated in two weeks due to a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder.
Okoro performed well in the Cleveland Cavaliers’ first game against the Milwaukee Bucks on November 2 last year, scoring 13 points, eight rebounds and three three-pointers while shooting 4 of 5 from the field in 28 minutes of action.
Donovan Mitchell talks about Isaac Okoro ahead of the matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell said his teammates need to be on both sides of the court to replace injured Isaac Okoro because they will miss him against the Milwaukee Bucks.
“With Isaac not playing, we have to continue to take our physicality to another level.” Mitchell said via Ethan Sands of Cleveland.com. – You also miss the second-best three-point shooter in the league. I say this as a joke, but not as a joke. I’m deadly stern too. He’s a guy who (was) knocking down shots and teams wanted to leave him. Of course, he’s missing defensively, but offensively he’s playing phenomenal for us.
Isaac Okoro played 23 games this season, in which he averaged 6.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists, achieving 49.5% field goals and 49.2% three-point shots.
