Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo will undergo additional tests on his sprained right wrist in New York, according to multiple media reports.<\/p>\n

The Greek served as a captain in Sunday\u2019s All-Star Game<\/a> but played just 20 seconds to avoid aggravating the injury.<\/p>\n

He scored a quick basket and committed an intentional foul so he could check out.<\/p>\n

\u201cTaking it day by day, try to get healthy,\u201d\u00a0Antetokounmpo said after Sunday\u2019s game.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, obviously I had the incident three days ago. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s smart in any way to \u2026 play a lot of minutes in the All-Star Game.<\/p>\n

“At the end of the day, obviously, you want to participate, you want to run up and down, joke around, have some dunks, create some work.<\/p>\n

“But at the end of the day, I feel you also have to be mature. Hard decision, but mature decision to kind of \u2026 take a break here, take care of it, and hopefully I can be available for my team when they need me.\u201d<\/p>\n

Antetokounmpo was visible throughout All-Star Weekend, but he didn\u2019t do much on the court.<\/p>\n

He pulled out of Saturday\u2019s skills competition, with teammate Jrue Holiday, taking his place on Team Antetokounmpo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
