According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Antetokounmpo will be unavailable for at least one week with left knee hyperextension and a bone bruise.
Hours ahead of their key home matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Bucks already announced that the Greek superstar will not play due to his left ankle sprain.
This marks another inactivity for Giannis in the wake of this frustrating and injury-riddled season for Milwaukee. Calf issues have significantly hindered the Bucks big man for most of the season, as he was limited to just 36 games.
As a result, the Bucks endured struggles without their main star. They are on the verge of missing the NBA Playoffs for the first time in 10 years, holding a 28-39 record and 5.5 games away from the final Play-In berth in the East.
With Giannis out, the Bucks will try to keep their season alive in the upcoming important games.
