During the NBA Night, there wasn’t only the second-highest-scoring game in the history of the league between the Sacramento Kings and the Los Angeles Clippers, but also the Bucks against Miami.

Milwaukee beat Miami 128-99, but Giannis Antetokounmpo had to leave late in the first quarter with a right knee issue to spoil his rapid recovery from a sprained wrist.

After the game, the Bucks‘s head coach Mike Budenholzer commented on his superstar’s injury. “I haven’t gotten the full breakdown, but I’m pretty sure either on a drive or on a screen or something like that, he knocked knees with somebody and just wasn’t able to return. We’ll see how he feels tomorrow. Just evaluate him and take it day by day”, he said.

The Greek Freak, who is averaging 31.3 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 5.4 assists per game, had 4 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists before leaving the court against the Miami Heat.
