CHICAGO -- Milwaukee Bucks All-Star Giannis Antetokounmpo will not play Friday night against the Chicago Bulls as he continues to rehab a right ankle injury. Bucks interim head coach Joe Prunty said Antetokounmpo underwent an MRI on his ankle, but did not sound concerned that the injury would keep him out of action for a long time.
"He's out tonight," Prunty said. "And we'll evaluate him moving forward."
Antetokounmpo did not travel with the Bucks to Chicago. He originally injured the ankle during the first half of Wednesday night's loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.
