Welcome. May I offer you a snack? Perhaps a cookie? Get it? … Because this is all virtual and cookies are files that – forget it.

Let’s do this!

Things to keep in mind

  • INJURIES: Wendell Carter Jr. (tailbone), Shaquille Harrison (hamstring), Chandler Hutchison (hamstring) and Luke Kornet (turf toe) will all be sidelined for tonight’s contest.
  • Yes, that is Robin Lopez in a Bucks jersey *sigh.*
  • Coby White will be making his United Center debut … so y’all better give that man a standing ovation (even if you’re on the couch).
