The Milwaukee Bucks will play their final home game of the season tonight against Orlando.

The Milwaukee Bucks will play their final home game of the season tonight against Orlando.

The Bucks assured themselves a winning record at the Bradley Center with their 21st home win on Saturday night over Oklahoma City.

But Milwaukee is just 33-47 overall, and they’re 0-3 against the Magic this season.

But the Bucks could catch a break tonight, as two key Orlando players are out with injuries.

Forward Hedo Turkoglu sprained his left ankle Saturday night in the Magic’s 10-point loss at New Jersey.

And Rashard Lewis, Orlando’s second-leading scorer, is out with tendinitis in his right knee. The Magic is 58-22 overall, but they’ve lost three of their last four to fall out of contention for the second playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

But the Bucks have been out of playoff contention altogether for just more than a week, as they’ve lost 10 of their last 14. Orlando has won eight of its last 10 games against Milwaukee.
