The Milwaukee Bucks take on the Cleveland Cavaliers at Quicken Loans Arena on Wednesday evening.

The Bucks (53-18) have let little stand in their way this season, even when their top star is forced to sit. That was the case Tuesday evening, when Milwaukee defeated the Los Angeles Lakers by a 115-101 score without Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) for their fifth win in seven games. As is usually the case when Antetokoumpo sits, Khris Middleton led the way for the Bucks with 30 points, adding 10 rebounds, five assists and one steal. Brook Lopez tallied 28 points, nine rebounds, three assists, four blocks and three steals. Nikola Mirotic registered 23 points, six rebounds and one assist. Eric Bledsoe managed 14 points, eight boards, seven assists and four steals. Patrick Connaughton finished with 13 points, eight rebounds and four assists off the bench.

The Bucks will likely list Antetokounmpo as questionable at best for Wednesday's game. Ersan Ilyasova (illness) and Pau Gasol (undisclosed) figure to carry the same designation. Malcolm Brogdon (foot), Donte DiVincenzo (heel) and Sterling Brown (wrist) will remain out.

The Cavaliers (18-53) have made notable strides in the latter portion of the season, although they'll come into Wednesday's game having dropped five of their last seven. However, one of their two wins during that stretch came in their last contest, when they notched a 126-119 win over the Detroit Pistons on Monday night. Collin Sexton paced Cleveland with 27 points, adding two rebounds, one assist and two steals. Cedi Osman supplied 21 points, six assists, four rebounds and one steal. Nik Stauskas poured in 17 points off the bench. Brandon Knight registered 16 points, five assists, four rebounds and one steal. Jordan Clarkson turned in 14 points, two rebounds and one assist. David Nwaba pitched in 13 points, six rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block.

The Cavaliers will likely list Matthew Dellavedova (concussion), Tristan Thompson (foot), Larry Nance, Jr. (ribs) and Kevin Love (back) as questionable at best for Wednesday's game.

Wednesday's contest marks the third of four meetings between the teams this season. The Bucks own a 2-0 series lead, having notched 108-92 and 114-102 victories on Dec. 10 and Dec. 14, respectively.
