Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Shows out in return
Antetokounmpo (calf) generated 29 points (10-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 8-10 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block across 25 minutes of Saturday's 112-103 win over the Bulls.
Antetokounmpo returned from an eight-game absence due to a soleus strain for Saturday's contest, but he didn't skip a beat. The superstar dominated Chicago, converting 66.7 percent of his field goal attempts and falling two rebounds short of a double-double, despite being limited to 25 minutes. Given Antetokounmpo's history of calf issues and the touchy nature of the injury, expect Milwaukee to ease him into his typical workload.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Good to go
Antetokounmpo (calf) is available for Saturday's game against the Bulls.
Antetokounmpo will return after a seven-game absence due to a strained right calf. The star forward's return will likely mean fewer opportunities for Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims. However, Antetokounmpo will likely have his minutes monitored against the Bulls, and perhaps longer. Antetokounmpo is averaging 28.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 6.1 assists across 29.1 minutes per game this season.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Officially questionable Saturday
Antetokounmpo (calf) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Bulls.
Antetokounmpo hasn't played since Dec. 3 due to a right soleus strain but is expected to return Saturday if he can clear his pregame tests, according to Eric Nehm of The Athletic. The two-time MVP will likely operate under a minutes restriction if he's cleared to play, though his potential return would leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims. In 17 regular-season appearances thus far, Antetokounmpo has averaged 28.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, 6.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in 29.1 minutes per contest.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Could return Saturday
Antetokounmpo (calf) is expected to play in Saturday's game against the Bulls if he can clear his pregame tests, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Antetokounmpo has missed Milwaukee's last eight games due to a right soleus strain he sustained after logging just three minutes in a win over Detroit on Dec. 3. The two-time MVP has been ramping up in practice recently and appears to be on track to return Saturday, but this report bodes well for his return in the near future if he isn't cleared to face Chicago. The Bucks are expected to release their official injury report by Saturday afternoon, which should provide some more clarity on Antetokounmpo's status. While it wouldn't be surprising to see the superstar operate under a minutes restriction in his return, having Antetokounmpo back in the lineup would likely mean fewer minutes for Jericho Sims and Bobby Portis.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Spotted at practice Saturday
Antetokounmpo (calf) participated in the Bucks' practice session Saturday.
The Bucks haven't provided an update regarding how extensively Antetokounmpo participated in the session, but his presence on the court in any capacity is an encouraging sign as he works his way back from the strained right calf he sustained Dec. 3. Considering the nature of his injury along with the fact that Antetokounmpo himself told Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Thursday that his recovery timeline ranges from 4-to-6 weeks, fantasy managers shouldn't bank on the two-time league MVP returning to action during the Bucks' upcoming three-game week. For as long as Antetokounmpo remains sidelined, the Bucks should have more minutes available in the frontcourt for the likes of Kyle Kuzma, Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Could be out up to four weeks
Bucks head coach Doc Rivers said Friday that he expects that Antetokounmpo will need closer to four weeks to recover from his strained right calf, Jamal Collier of ESPN.com reports. "I feel like we should learn is with calves -- make sure they're healthy," Rivers said. "So that may take longer than we want. That even may make Giannis frustrated over it, but we just got to try to get that right."
After suffering the injury in Wednesday's win over the Pistons, Antetokounmpo was initially given a loose recovery timetable of 2-to-4 weeks, but he looks like he'll remain out for the longer end of that projections. The good news is that due to the NBA Cup, the Bucks have only seven games over the next three weeks. Jericho Sims, Kyle Kuzma and Bobby Portis are all candidates to receive increased minutes in the frontcourt with Antetokounmpo sidelined, and Ryan Rollins and Kevin Porter should both take on increased usage out of the backcourt in the absence of the nine-time All-Star.

Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo: Out 2-4 weeks
Antetokounmpo (calf) is expected to be sidelined for two-to-four weeks, ESPN's Shams Charania reports Thursday.
An MRI taken Wednesday night confirmed a right calf strain for Milwaukee's franchise player. The Bucks have ruled out any concerns with Antetokounmpo's Achilles, so the franchise will be able to breathe a bit following this news. If Antetokounmpo is able to return at the front end of this timetable, he would miss at least five games. However, it's likely that the team proceeds with extreme caution, given the nature of this injury and his murky future with the team. In the meantime, guys like Kyle Kuzma, Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims will have an opportunity to step up.
