"Antetokounmpo participated in non-contact work only, Bucks coach Doc Rivers said. "He said he's going to need a good three days," Rivers said. Antetokounmpo arrived in Miami on Friday. The Bucks held media day on Monday - Antetokounmpo took part remotely - and started camp in Milwaukee on Tuesday, then flew to Miami on Thursday for a few days of workouts at Florida International University in advance of their preseason opener against the Heat on Monday."
""I think it took a toll on my body. I'm not feeling 100% yet physically," Antetokounmpo said of dealing with the illness. "Just taking it day by day, getting back in shape. I was able to do some 5-on-0, run up and down a little bit. Tomorrow I'll be a little better. I've got like 18 days until the first game so I think I'll be fine.""
