The Bucks are reportedly bracing to be without their two-time MVP, but are hopeful he can return by the end of their first-round series against the Pacers.
The Milwaukee Bucks are bracing to be without their two-time MVP when postseason play opens up this weekend. Giannis Antetokounmpo is expected to be out for the start of the Bucks' first-round series against the Indiana Pacers due to a left calf strain, ESPN reported Tuesday. The eight-time All-Star forward could return later in the series, with the team holding optimism that continued treatment might have him ready to play by then, ESPN added in its report.
Those odds have lengthened to -135 as of Tuesday afternoon. The Pacers' odds of defeating the Bucks shortened from +145 to +110. In addition, while the shortest odds for the exact outcome of the series is Bucks 4-3 , the second-shortest odds are now Pacers 4-2 . On Monday, the Bucks winning 4-1 and the Bucks winning 4-2 were tied for the second-shortest odds . The Pacers winning 4-2 was at +550, the fourth-shortest odds.
