Giannis Antetokounmpo Injury Report: Greek Freak’s Update on Scary Ankle Sprain vs Knicks, That scary thing has really come to pass

Giannis Antetokounmpo Injury Report: Greek Freak’s Update on Scary Ankle Sprain vs Knicks

Between the Milwaukee Bucks and New York Knicks, the former emerged as the winner. Yesterday’s quarterfinal matchup for a spot in the semis in Vegas was clinched by the Bucks, who now head into the semis. But Giannis Antetokounmpo had a slight mishap during the game.

Landing awkwardly on Julius Randle’s foot, the ‘Greek Freak’ and Milwaukee had a major injury scare. The move saw him with a twisted left ankle.

Twisting your ankle is no joke. And many were concerned whether the Bucks’ superstar would have to leave the court. But as we have seen in many cases, players often see the game to the end when there’s too much at stake. That’s exactly what the ‘Greek’ did. In the latest injury update, Giannis confirmed that the ankle “feels good.”

The ankle would definitely need to be looked after, as Giannis mentioned. With a day’s rest before the Vegas matchup against the Pacers, the ‘Deer State’ will need the Greek to keep up with Haliburton. Antetokounmpo averages 30.2 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 5.2 assists per game this season.

The Bucks had a surprise waiting for their star

Ahead of the IST semi-finals, the team was getting as much practice as they could. With the injury scare and the tension of the game itself, a light-hearted incident was needed. And what better way than to celebrate their star player’s birthday?

His teammates sang ‘Happy Birthday’ during practice before two staff walked in bearing a cake.

6th December 1994 marked the birth of a champion. Of the Greek-Nigerian descent, Giannis Sina Ugo Antetokounmpo came to America to make his dreams come true. But it wasn’t just his dreams that bloomed. When Milwaukee signed the lanky forward center, they never dreamed the kind of impact he would make in the city he had come to call ‘home’.

Father of three, the 6’11 gentle giant, has accomplished a lot in the 10 years he’s been with the NBA. His community efforts haven’t gone unnoticed either. From being a forgotten city in Wisconsin, it has become more than the “Brew City” now. It’s no wonder that the ‘Badger State’ has accepted him wholeheartedly into their warm embrace.

He’s had the same effect on his team and teammates as well. From a struggling team, the 19-year-old Giannis led the Bucks to a championship in 2021—their second title since 1971. The 2x MVP continues his onslaught. Hoping to take the team to a second NBA championship, the Giannis-Dame duo will do whatever it takes to reach that goal.
