Milwaukee Bucks small forward Giannis Antetokounmpo will officially sit out Monday’s game versus the Chicago Bulls due to right knee soreness. Antetokounmpo had been doubtful throughout the day Monday, with the remainder of his teammates in position to see slight bumps in usage without their leading scorer on the scene.
