Injury Report
Bradley Beal (fibula), while practicing with the team is out, along with Alan Anderson (ankle), and Marcin Gortat (knee). Kris Humphries (knee) is questionable.
UPDATE: Marcin Gortat is out tonight, according to J. Michael of CSN Mid-Atlantic but Bradley Beal is a game time decision.
For the Bucks, Jerryd Bayless (ankle), and Greivis Vasquez (ankle) are out, while O.J. Mayo (hamstring) are questionable.
Most Likely Wizards Killer: Khris Middleton
Khris Middleton is averaging 21.6 points, 5.2 assists, and 3.4 rebounds over his last five games, all but assuming the role as the Bucks most important player. Middleton's a scorer who can hurt teams in a number of ways --especially from behind the arc -- and the Wizards will have to slow him down in order to get the win.
They were able to slow down Jimmy Butler on Monday, can they repeat the performance tonight?
