Giannis Antetokounmpo will play again this season
Absent for more than two weeks, because calf injury again, Giannis Antetokounmpo East still a member Buckseven though the “trade deadline” has passed.
While Rivers can breatheand everything Milwaukee with, after long weeks of repeating that the “Greek freak” is not leaving Wisconsin anytime soon. Even if discussions took place behind the scenes.
« I kept saying it, but no one wanted to hear it… » enjoyed the coach in this sense. ” I don’t think I changed my mind about what was going to happen. It really bothered me because it all seemed like people were thinking about trying to force him out of Milwaukee… But I’m glad it’s over. »
Among the Bucks, the atmosphere has changed, Gary Harris explaining that ” a topic that everyone avoided talking about for weeks » managed to be evacuated, when Doc Rivers joked that ” everyone was jumping » in the training room.
File closed… for now
On social networksGiannis Antetokounmpo and the franchise also went out of their way to mislead, between nods to Shams Charani, references to “The Wolf of Wall Street” and the message ” Legends don’t follow, they attract ».
« I think it was a form of relief (for everyone) » Doc Rivers insisted, probably aware that it would all start again in the offseason. ” I also found Giannis’ tweet to be a unifying factor for all players. »
From now on, it’s time for Milwaukee, who will look to “ concentrate and be fully involved » on the ground. Although he hopes that the return of Giannis Antetokounmpo will not be delayed, in order to possibly move up in the rankings.
« He will play when he recovers Doc Rivers repeated. ” We just have to make sure he’s healthy and getting closer. He’s training, he seems to be doing well, so I’d say it will be sooner than expected. »
Good to know: The Bucks can’t really activate tanking mode, as they won’t have full control of their 2026 first-round pick, subject to a “trade” with the Pelicans (and still with the Hawks). It is clear that a very low place in the rankings will not guarantee them a better draft pick.
