Milwaukee's basketball team was defeated by Denver last night (102:100), but during the match, they were without Giannis Antetokounmpo on several occasions, as he was struggling with an injury.

The Greek international had problems with his right calf muscle, which caused him to go to the locker room for medical attention during the first and second quarters. He also missed the final game, spending the last 34 seconds out of the game.

"The next step will be an MRI, which will probably show that my calf is torn. After that, I will be told that I will miss between four and six weeks, I can assume that from my experience in the NBA. I felt discomfort for most of the game, but I didn't want to give up, I don't like that. I couldn't move until the end, so I had to sit on the bench. I will probably be back in late February or early March," Antetokounmpo said.

Antetokounmpo scored 22 points, 13 rebounds and seven assists in 32 minutes last night.

Milwaukee is in 11th place in the Eastern Conference with a record of 18-26.
