Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo was dominated out of Thursday’s 143-136 loss to the Houston Rockets with a proper ankle sprain, the staff introduced.

Antetokounmpo performed simply 46 seconds. On a driving layup, he appeared to step on the foot of Kelly Olynyk, rolling what was already an injured ankle. He limped to the locker room and spent a couple of minutes there earlier than returning to the bench, the place he sat for the remainder of the sport.

Antetokounmpo entered the sport listed as possible with a proper ankle sprain.

Bucks coach Mike Budenholzer stated the brand new harm was a sprain and that the staff is hopeful it isn’t critical. Budenholzer stated the staff would see how the ankle responds to therapy and go from there.

Milwaukee subsequent performs the Bulls in Chicago on Friday evening.
