The Milwaukee Bucks are on national television tonight, facing the Denver Nuggets as part of the NBA’s AWS Rivals Week, but one key presence was missing. Viewers who joined early would’ve seen superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo make an odd maneuver, seemingly exiting the game early, before something weird happened.
With about 3:55 left in the first quarter, Antetokounmpo walked off in the direction of the tunnel, seemingly heading to the locker room. However, he immediately turned around, sitting on the bench with an ice pack on his ankle, eventually checking back into the game with about 7:30 left in the second quarter.
However, he has looked oddly out of sorts, going 1/4 from the field in the second, so he might be playing through an injury. There’s no announcement from the Bucks yet on his status, so all we can do is speculate. Expect to hear more on this after the game, either from the team or the man himself.
This is a developing story.
