The Milwaukee Bucks take on the Detroit Pistons at Little Caesars Arena on Wednesday night.

The Bucks (7-4) are running hot after having started the season on shaky footing, having won five of their last six games. Their most recent success was an impressive 121-99 win over the Orlando Magic on Monday night. Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way with 22 points, adding six rebounds, four assists, one steal and two blocks.

The Bucks will continue to be without Torrey Craig (nose) for Wednesday's contest. Portis (knee) will be listed as probable.

The Pistons (2-8) are having about as difficult a time as their record indicates, as they'll come into Wednesday's game having lost four of the five games. Their most recent stumble came against the Utah Jazz, having dropped a 96-86 decision Sunday night. Jerami Grant paced the Pistons with 28 points, supplementing them with four rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block. Saddiq Bey registered 12 points, three boards and one assist. Blake Griffin managed 10 points, six rebounds and five assists. Mason Plumlee and Delon Wright contributed matching six-point, three-assist, two-steal tallies.

The Pistons will continue without Killian Hayes (hip) for Wednesday's game. Derrick Rose (knee) carries a probable designation.

Wednesday's contest marks the third and final meeting between the teams this season. The Bucks hold a 2-0 series lead, having notched 125-115 and 130-115 wins on Jan. 4 and 6.
