Giannis Antetokounmpo's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) won't play against the Washington Wizards. The veteran is no stranger to the league's official injury report. However, instead of his usual knee issue, back spasms will keep him off the floor on Saturday night. With Damian Lillard (calf) also out, the team will look to Khris Middleton (ankles), Bobby Portis, and Brook Lopez to lead things offensively. There's also streaming potential for Ryan Rollins and Andre Jackson Jr. with both men entering the starting lineup versus Washington.

According to Milwaukee Bucks head coach Doc Rivers, forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) is unlikely to suit up for Saturday's game against the Wizards. The multi-time All-Star has been on a roll this season, averaging a career-high 32.7 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks. He's also missed only two games, although Saturday will mark his third. With Damian Lillard (calf) out again, Khris Middleton (ankles), who will play, could be in line for his best game of the season. Bobby Portis, Brook Lopez, Taurean Prince, and Gary Trent Jr. are also on tap for more production, making them all viable fantasy options.

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is good to go for Friday's matchup against the league-leading Cavaliers. He's been inactive only twice all season despite being a mainstay on the injury report with a knee problem. Antetokounmpo is coming off a triple-double performance as he led the Bucks to the NBA Cup win on Tuesday against Oklahoma City with 26 points, 19 rebounds, and 10 assists. He also feasted in this season's first clash with the Cavaliers, racking up 34 points, 16 rebounds, and nine assists.
