Giannis Antetokounmpo DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) will continue to operate under a minutes restriction during Friday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. Bucks head coach Doc Rivers announced that Antetokounmpo will be limited to 24 minutes. He logged the same amount of minutes on Thursday against the Los Angeles Clippers when Antetokounmpo returned from a six-game absence. While fantasy managers didn't get full value from Antetokounmpo, he still filled the stat sheet with ease, notching 23 points, eight rebounds, four assists, and one block. Antetokounmpo won't have Damian Lillard (hamstring) next to him on Friday, so he may do more damage on the offensive end.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) remains on the injury report ahead of their Friday night matchup against the Washington Wizards, but is considered probable to play. He returned from a six-game absence on Thursday and played under a minutes restriction. In the win over the Los Angeles Clippers, the former MVP registered 23 points, eight rebounds, four assists, one block, and three turnovers on 10-for-14 shooting. He's likely to remain under the restriction in this game, so he'd hover around 23-25 minutes which makes his DFS value less than that in re-draft or other formats.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is available for Thursday's meeting with the Clippers. The 30-year-old last played during the February 2 matchup with the Memphis Grizzlies. However, he was diagnosed with a strained calf and missed the Bucks' last six games. Antetokounmpo, along with Damian Lillard (hamstring), will operate under a minutes restriction. As a result, neither player should see much attention from DFS participants. But Antetokounmpo remains a must-start in redraft formats. With Bobby Portis (suspension) unavailable, Taurean Prince could see more action than originally anticipated, with Kyle Kuzma getting more involved on the scoring end.
