Antetokounmpo Dominates in Return from Calf Strain, Scores 29 Points

Giannis Antetokounmpo (right calf/soleus strain) returned from a seven-game absence for Saturday's game against the Bulls, scoring 29 points (10-15 FG, 8-10 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block in just 25 minutes. He dominated Chicago, converting 66.7% of his field goals. A minutes restriction was anticipated, and Milwaukee is expected to ease him into his typical workload given his calf issues. The Bucks went 2-6 in his absence since December 3.
