Milwaukee Bucks have not lost hope on Giannis Antetokounmpo’s availability for Game 2 against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday. The eight-time All-Star was forced to sit out in Game 1 due to a lingering calf injury, but it now appears that there is a small chance that he will be able to play on Tuesday night.
Milwaukee Bucks News: Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Listed as Doubtful for Game 2
![BREAKING: Milwaukee Bucks Announce Giannis Antetokounmpo's Injury Status for Game 2 Vs. Indiana Pacers 1 Damian Lillard, Milwaukee Bucks, Giannis Antetokounmpo, NBA Injury, NBA Playoffs](https://wisportsheroics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/USATSI_22747135-scaled.jpg)
The Bucks have already submitted their injury report for Tuesday’s contest. Antetokounmpo is now officially considered doubtful to play due to a left soleus strain.
While this isn’t very encouraging, the silver lining is that at least Giannis has not been ruled out for the game, meaning that there is a chance that he will suit up in Game 2.
Then again, it is also worth noting that Antetokounmpo was given this same designation for Game 1, and as we all know, he ultimately spent that game watching from the sidelines.Mar 14, 2024; Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA; Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo during warmups prior to the game against the Philadelphia 76ers at Fiserv Forum.

If Giannis does end up sitting out on Tuesday, then Damian Lillard will need to step up to the plate again. The eight-time All-Star had no problem leading the way for a shorthanded Milwaukee side in Sunday’s 109-94 blowout win against the Pacers, and he might need to do it again in Game 2.
