Giannis Antetokounmpo MRI scan result on his back came today, and it was clean, the head coach Mike Budenholzer reported this afternoon.
That is great news as the star of Milwaukee Bucks left injured in the 1st half against Miami on Sunday in Game 1 from the 1st round playoff series.
The Greek player spent only 11 minutes before leaving injured, and his team was defeated by Miami Heat 130-117.
“He’s still sore, but I think progress,” Budenholzer said Monday. “He’s getting some treatment, and we’ll just continue to monitor him for the next day or two.”
