Giannis Antetokounmpo injury update: Bucks star exits early vs. Pistons

NBA season giving thanks

For Thanksgiving, we talked about all the things we’re thankful for this NBA season.

On a day where big questions arose about Giannis Antetokounmpo’s future with the Milwaukee Bucks, the team is now holding its breath about his immediate health.

The Bucks superstar exited Milwaukee’s contest against the Detroit Pistons in the first quarter and was ruled out for the game with what the team called a “right calf strain.”

Antetokounmpo went down suddenly while heading back up the court after feeding AJ Green for a layup. The two-time MVP headed back to the locker room and the Bucks ruled him out for the game a short time later.

He scored two points and had a rebound and an assist in just 3 minutes of play.
