"The Bucks are playing for a second straight night, which explains the decision to rest Antetokounmpo. The 6-foot-11 forward had 27 points, nine rebounds and eight assists in 27 minutes Saturday as the Bucks snapped a four-game skid with a victory over the Utah Jazz."
"Antetokounmpo has played three games since returning from the calf injury that knocked him out for five weeks. He has missed time with a right calf strain on two separate occasions this season. This will mark the 30th game Antetokounmpo has missed this season."
Giannis Antetokounmpo will not play Sunday against the Orlando Magic as the Milwaukee Bucks manage his recovery from a right calf strain. The decision comes after the Bucks played Saturday night, with back-to-back games prompting the rest. Antetokounmpo recorded 27 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists in 27 minutes during Saturday's victory over Utah. He has appeared in three games since returning from the injury that kept him out for five weeks. This marks his 30th missed game this season, surpassing his previous career high of 21 missed games in a single season. Kevin Porter Jr. also remains unavailable due to right knee swelling.
