Good afternoon and welcome to Lockdown NBA Daily on today's show.

Have we already seen the last of Yannis in a buck's jersey?

His latest injury is people wondering if the buck should pivot and trade him before the trade deadline.

Meanwhile, the Raptors are climbing the East standings and after last night's win against the thunder,

I'll ask if we should take them seriously as a contender.

All of that and more coming up on today's Locked-on NBA Daily.

Today we're talking about what Janice's latest injury means for his future in Milwaukee and the surging Toronto Raptors. We'll also get to our weekend winners and losers. I'm doing it with the help of lockdown's local experts. I have one of the best with me as always from the Lockdown Nuggets podcast, senior NBA writer for the Action Network. It's Matt Moore. Three games postponed this weekend, two in part due to the weather,

and we've also lost haze, which is terrible to the weather today. Not like he's not dead,

but like the weather has delayed haze. Our show is delayed. The storm is wreaking havoc across the country uh it is sunny and blue skies in miami right now we just haven't felt anything it's it is 15 degrees and miserable

in colorado but that's pretty much six months of the year for us uh it is weird to watch the

news and just see all this stuff and just be like it feels like it it's coming for us at some point. Just everything's delayed here. Let's get to the big news from the weekend other than all those postponed games, and that's that Janus is going to miss several weeks after re-agravating a right calf injury in Friday night's loss to the Nuggets. If you didn't think that the buck season was already over before that injury, well, you probably do now. The bucks are 18 and 26. There are two and a half games back of the 10th seat in the playing. That gap is more likely to get bigger now with the honest out. Over at locked on bucks, they're talking about tanking. He's hurt right now. And if he's going to be out for four to six weeks. Like at this point, now it's time to have the conversation around.

Is this time for the quiet shutdown of the season,

the quiet tank, so to speak, for this Bugs team, that the Bugs have a draft pick in this upcoming

draft. It is just engaged in the pick swap. So it feels to me we're getting to a point where

let's try to get a high draft pick

since we actually have one.

Matt, time to tank.

I mean, sure, if you want to.

Like, the bigger thing here, I just think is, I think it's just really difficult.

I asked Bucks fans on Twitter.
