Giannis Antetokounmpo (left knee hyper-extension) has no structural damage and his "ligaments are sound," according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Milwaukee can breathe a huge sigh of relief. Giannis' return timetable is "unclear," according to Woj, but ruling out a torn ACL is fantastic news after he awkwardly went down during Game 4. We'll list him as 'doubtful' for Game 5 given the seeming severity of the hyper-extension, but it shouldn't take long until the Bucks offer some details. If Giannis does miss time with the ailment, Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday will carry the offense against a Hawks team that's also navigating a superstar's injury. Bobby Portis also stands to gain a ton of appeal as a DFS target.
