When Giannis Antetokounmpo fell to the floor in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference finals after his knee twisted in a gruesome fashion, he said his immediate thought was that not only was this season over - but that next season was, too.
"I thought I would be out for a year," Antetokounmpo said.
Instead, Antetokounmpo was only out for a week, and was able to return for Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Tuesday night against the Phoenix Suns. And while Antetokounmpo's Milwaukee Bucks lost to the Suns 118-105 to begin the seven-game series, all the superstar forward could focus on was that he was able to be on the court and playing alongside his teammates.
