Giannis Antetokounmpo Avoids Serious Damage
2 years agoMilwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (wrist) has reportedly avoided serious injury. The All-Star forward exited early during Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Antetokounmpo was clearly still feeling pain in his wrist because he only played the first possession during the All-Star Game before checking out of the contest. Further testing has revealed that Antetokounmpo has suffered a sprained right wrist. He could miss some action because of this, but at least he has avoided serious injury. Joe Ingles and Jae Crowder will likely be asked to step up, assuming Antetokounmpo misses time. Also, newly signed Meyers Leonard could quickly work his way into the rotation. Crowder has the most fantasy value between the three, but is more of a deep league option at best.
