Fantasy NBA Injury Update

Will Giannis Suit Up?

Giannis Antetokounmpo is expected to play for the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls, according to head coach Mike Budenholzer.

Antetokounmpo has missed the Bucks' last three games with a right ankle sprain, however, participated in practice on Thursday and Friday.

He is considered a game-time decision, but Budenholzer said he is "trending in the right direction" to play.

Antetokounmpo is averaging 31.8 points, 12.2 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game this season.

What This Means For Fantasy Managers

If Antetokounmpo plays, he will be a must-start in all fantasy formats.

He is one of the best players in the NBA and can provide a boost in all statistical categories.

However, if Antetokounmpo sits out, fantasy managers should look to other options.
