What happened: Milwaukee added center Kel'el Ware to its injury report Tuesday ahead of the team's road matchup against the New York Knicks due to a left ankle sprain. He joins guard Tyler Herro, who is designated questionable with a right knee contusion, on the Bucks' pregame injury report.
Why it matters: The Bucks sit 15th in the Eastern Conference at 1-9 through 10 games in 2026-27, having dropped six consecutive contests following a 117-97 loss to the Boston Celtics on Nov. 8. Frontcourt absences further challenge Milwaukee's rotation as the team attempts to halt its early-season skid without thinning its interior depth.
By the numbers: Milwaukee sits 15th in the Eastern Conference at 1-9 on a six-game losing streak, having fallen 117-97 to Boston. Herro has recorded 21.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 4.3 assists per game in 2026-27 through 10 games.
What to watch: The Bucks face the Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night, with final active statuses determined closer to tipoff.
