"NEW YORK -- Giannis Antetokounmpo returned to the lineup for the Milwaukee Bucks in an NBA Cup game against the New York Knicks on Friday night after missing four games with a groin strain. Antetokounmpo strained his left groin during Milwaukee's 118-106 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Nov. 17. A day later, coach Doc Rivers said the two-time MVP would likely miss two weeks."
"Antetokounmpo is averaging 31.2 points, 10.8 rebounds and 6.8 assists. He scored 14 points in 13 minutes before getting injured. The Bucks are 0-5 this season when Antetokounmpo does not play. He traveled with the team to Miami on Wednesday, when the Bucks were handed a 106-103 loss. Antetokounmpo was named the MVP of the in-season tournament last year, when the Bucks beat the Oklahoma City Thunder to claim the title after losing to the Indiana Pacers in the semifinals in 2023-24."
