Following a one-game absence due to right knee soreness, Giannis Antetokounmpo helped the Milwaukee Bucks grab a road win against the Sacramento Kings in overtime. He didn’t start the extra period, but got back on the court late in overtime. After the NBA 2018-19 Regular Season game he said he was fine.

It’s a safe bet that the MVP-candidate will be further rested down the stretch of the Regular Season ahead of the playoffs. On Wednesday, the Greek Freak only played 24 minutes, but scored 17 points with 7/12 from the field. He added seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks to his tally.
