Giannis Antetokounmpo Has No Damage To Achilles

According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the Milwaukee Bucks’ superstar has avoided damage to his left Achilles after suffering a non-contact injury against the Boston Celtics.

The non-contact injury looked bad, with fans speculating of a potential knee or Achilles issue for the two-time MVP; Milwaukee’s medical team has diagnosed Giannis Antetokounmpo with a left calf strain.

While a timetable hasn’t been established for his return, common strains take one to two weeks to heal before he can return, and severe strains can take six to eight weeks.

With all that being said, the postseason begins on the 20th and 21st. Doc Rivers’ team has locked themselves into a playoff spot.
