Why is Giannis Not Playing | Right Calf Strain

Giannis Antetokounmpo is not playing because he suffered a right calf strain during the first quarter of the game against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night (December 3).


Here are the details on his current status:

  • The Injury: Approximately 3 minutes into the game, Giannis suffered a non-contact injury. He appeared to slip or plant his foot awkwardly in the painted area, went down clutching his leg, and then limped to the locker room.

  • Official Status: The Bucks officially ruled him out for the remainder of the game with a right calf strain.

  • Recent Health Context: This is a new injury. He had previously been listed on injury reports for a left adductor (groin) strain, which caused him to miss games in late November, but this latest issue is to his right leg.
