Suns coach Monty Williams says bench forward Torrey Craig's status for Game 3 against the Milwaukee Bucks in Milwaukee on Sunday (Monday AEST) is uncertain.

Former NBL import Craig has been a strong contributor for the Suns during the playoffs but hurt his right knee during a collision with a driving Giannis Antetokounmpo in Phoenix's 118-108 Game 2 victory at home on Thursday.

Phoenix already are playing without reserve forward Dario Saric, who tore his right anterior cruciate ligament in Phoenix's 118-105 Game 1 triumph on Tuesday.

Craig's injury isn't nearly as severe.

"He got some testing done yesterday," Williams said on Saturday. "All of that came back clean, but he's still sore. So I can't make much of a statement on his availability or anything like that.

"We're going to get through today. We'll have a light practice today and put him through some paces. We'll be able to make a better statement about his availability tomorrow, and then we'll adjust accordingly."

Williams mentioned Cam Johnson and Abdel Nader as players who could have bigger roles if Craig is unavailable. Johnson has averaged 9 points and 19.5 minutes in the finals. Nader has played just one minute over the first two games of this series.

Milwaukee's 2-0 deficit in the best-of-seven NBA Finals hasn't impacted Antetokounmpo's sense of humor.

The two-time MVP did his best impression of former NFL running back Marshawn Lynch at the start of his news conference. He responded to the first question by saying, "I'm just here not to get fined," before breaking into laughter.

"We all understand what kind of game we are getting ourselves into tomorrow," said Antetokounmpo, who scored 42 points in Game 2. "So we know what we got to do. But at the end of the day, you got to keep it light. You cannot tell yourself, 'Oh, it's the finals. You got to do this.'

"There's so much pressure, man. No, like, it's still basketball. It's easy to say, hard to do, but at the same time, you have to try to approach it that way. Just got to keep it light. Got to keep the ball light. You got to keep the atmosphere light."
