Bucks' boogeyman makes an appearance one quarter into their season

The Milwaukee Bucks kicked off the 2025-26 NBA season with a completely healthy roster. It did not even last one quarter. Starting point guard Kevin Porter Jr. exited in the first quarter after suffering an ankle sprain. The play came after Porter stepped on Bobby Portis's foot and fell to the ground. Soon after, he was ruled out for the remainder of the contest.

Bucks' greatest enemy has already made an appearance

Milwaukee just cannot catch a break. Injuries have been a significant storyline for this team over the last several years. Whether it's Khris Middleton spraining his MCL, Damian Lillard tearing his Achilles, or Giannis Antetokounmpo suffering a soleus strain, injuries have beaten this team into the dirt on multiple occasions.
