Wesley Matthews (calf) sidelined for Bucks versus Brooklyn
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Wesley Matthews has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets due to a right calf injury.
What It Means:
Matthews logged over 25 minutes in the Bucks' first two games, so this could just be a maintenance day as Eric Bledsoe (conditioning) and Pat Connaughton (conditioning) are both returning. It will be just Matthews' fourth absence of the season. George Hill and Bledsoe will start in the Bucks' backcourt. Tip-off is scheduled for 1:30 pm ET.
Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Bucks are favored by 19 points on Tuesday.
