Giannis Antetokounmpo and Luka Doncic are among European players who might miss their team’s game on Monday.

The Milwaukee Bucks have listed Giannis Antetokounmpo as doubtful for the away game with the Chicago Bulls. The Greek Freak looks like he’s going to miss action again due to right knee soreness. Resting him ahead of the final stretch of the Regular Season and the Playoffs is probably on the NBA-leaders’ mind. If he indeed sits out tonight, Ersan Ilyasova and Nikola Mirotic will have an upgraded role with one of them starting.

Luka Doncic has missed two consecutive matches due to right ankle soreness and appears to be heading for a third. The Dallas Mavericks have listed him as questionable ahead of the away game against the Los Angeles Clippers, but isn’t expected to suit up tonight according to early reports. Maxi Kleber (illness) is also questionable and Kristaps Porzingis (left knee) is out.
