Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is listed as doubtful to play Monday against the Indiana Pacers.

Ben Simmons Playing On Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (knee) will play Sunday against the New York Knicks. Simmons sat out Saturday's game with a sore knee despite being listed as probable to play.
