But still, he&#8217;ll probably be out for two weeks. And we&#8217;ll see. Hopefully, less, but most likely it will be in that range.&#8221;\n\nThe coach pointed out that Antetokounmpo began to feel discomfort in his groin from the first quarter of Monday&#8217;s game and grabbed his left groin several times before leaving the game. With 3:03 left in the second quarter, Antetokounmpo limped across the court on defense before committing a foul and heading to the Bucks&#8217; locker room.\n\nAntetokounmpo has had a spectacular start to the season, averaging 32.6 points with 63% shooting efficiency, 11.3 rebounds, and 7.1 assists in his first 12 games. The Bucks have relied even more on their star, with a usage rate of 36.4%, the second highest in the NBA before Monday and the highest for Antetokounmpo since the 2022-23 season.\n\n\n<p>Without their star, the Bucks were outscored 59-49 and only shot 38.6% after halftime against the Cavaliers, suffering their second consecutive loss of the season. The Bucks have an 8-7 record and a 1-1 record in the games that Antetokounmpo has missed this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Giannis Antetokounmpo Out Due to Injury: Estimated Time of Absence Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo suffered a low-grade left groin strain and will be out for one to two weeks, according to sources.
