Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) starting for Bucks Sunday; Jae Crowder moving to bench
The Milwaukee Bucks will have Giannis Antetokounmpo (hamstring) start against the New York Knicks, but could see his minutes limited going forward per Doc Rivers.
What It Means:
Antetokounmpo is back in the lineup after a one game absence. Head coach Doc Rivers mentioned before the game that the star could see his minutes limited for the remainder of the regular season, so his usage tonight will be important to monitor. His return will push Jae Crowder to the bench.
Our model projects Antetokounmpo, who has a $12,100 salary, for 50 FanDuel points against the Knicks, with 25.1 points, 10.9 boards, and 6.3 assists.
