Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) out Monday
The Milwaukee Bucks have ruled out Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
What It Means:
Antetokounmpo was questionable heading into tonight's game with an Achilles injury, and reportedly had to cut his pregame warmups short before being ruled out for the night. Hopefully the star is only dealing with a minor issue and will be able to return for the Bucks' upcoming game against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday.
With Antetokounmpo sidelined, Pat Connaughton or Bobby Portis could step into the starting lineup versus Los Angeles. Portis has a $6,500 salary on FanDuel and is projected for 21.3 FanDuel points, while Connaughton's salary is set at $4,300 and he is projected for 15.7.
