Is Giannis Antetokounmpo Playing as the Bucks take on the Washington Wizards?

It is safe to say that the superstar duo of Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard is running riots. They were expected to perform at this level after the Bucks acquired Lillard in the blockbuster trade. Lillard was primarily included in the Bucks squad because others could not support Giannis in his gameplay. He was getting frustrated and even hinted at an exit. As a matter of fact, the Bucks management did all they could, and the rest is history.

Giannis has been making quite the news from the start of this season. From scoring a mind-boggling 54 points to getting ejected after a dunk celebration, he has witnessed it all. In the last match against the championship contender Dallas Mavericks squad, he managed to present a powerful performance. He scored 40 crucial points, with 15 rebounds, and 7 assists in the Bucks’ win. They won by a score of 132-125. But is the Greek Freak playing tonight, as the Bucks take on the Washington Wizards?

There’s no official updates regarding Giannis’ injury from the Bucks’ end. So, it is safe to assume that he is fit and will be playing against the Wizards tonight.

As noted, MarJon Beauchamp, Jae Crowder, and Chris Livingston are out due to injuries. Beauchamp is out due to a right ankle sprain, Jae Crowder due to left abductor surgery, and Livingston due to a left ankle sprain. These should not bother them, as the Bucks are looking rock solid in every department.
