Giannis Antetokounmpo Doubtful For Game 6
3 years agoMilwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is listed as doubtful for Game 6 versus the Atlanta Hawks. It sounds like the Bucks are trying to be cautious here with a one game lead in the series. Antetokounmpo is dealing with a hyperextension in his left knee, but an MRI revealed no structural damage. The organization feels that they can make it to the NBA Finals without Antetokounmpo. However, he'd likely be available, assuming the Hawks are able to push it to a Game 7. Nonetheless, Bobby Portis should continue to see significant playing time without Antetokounmpo likely available for Game 6. Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday will be asked to run the offense.
