Giannis to miss 2-4 weeks, there done

2-4 weeks from when, today or from the injury?  He was injured on Apr 9.  Today is already 10 days from the injury.  Is this meant to mean he would be back between Apr 23 and May 7?

Sounds like he will likely be back at some point during the Indiana series.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Bucks are preparing to be without Antetokounmpo (calf) for the beginning of their series against the Pacers.

I think Butler is done for the season. He could barely walk out of the arena.

Giannis is also going to missing more time than people think. That injury ended up crippling KD. No way Ginnias is going to be ready for a series vs the Pacers. I say he does not play at all.

Lillard is gonna have a huge spotlight on him now. If he doesn't do well and the Bucks lose with Giannis out then Lillard is gonna get heavily scrutinized. He's no longer on a bad and dysfunctional franchise, but can he carry them with Giannis out? We'll see. Say what you will but in 2021-2022 when Giannis was missing some playoff games, Holiday and Middleton stepped up big time and kept them afloat. Middleton isn't the same guy but he's still solid and according to this forum, Lillard is a Top-10 NBA player and one of the best closers. Show us.

Brian Windhorst said Dame isn't close to being healthy right now with an adductor muscle injury.

Lilliard hasn’t been as good as usual all season. Him starting in the all star game was ridiculous. We really dodged a bullet not getting him as that control will soon be an absolute disaster. How Lebron, KD, Curry and to a lesser extent Paul have performed in their mid and late 30’s has made people forget how much most players decline at 33 or 34.

I was looking at the Bucks roster...man they are old. Lopez, Portis, Middleton, Dame. And Giannis can't stay healthy at playoff time.

I could see a massive rebuild in the future for them.

Huh when did that happen?

Between that and Embiid getting hurt again I may need to catch up on all these injuries.

Heard the interview on the Pat McAfee show. Windy said Dame is not close to 100 percent.

Dame was even held out of practice this week because of it.

TP thanks.

I originally had MIL in 7 still but if Giannis truly misses the *entire* series and Lillard is also hurt, I might adjust to IND in 6. I thought Giannis would come back by the middle of the series but idk
