Giannis Antetokounmpo questionable for Game 2 with lower-back injury

Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as questionable for Game 2 of their first-round matchup against the Miami Heat.

Antetokounmpo fell awkwardly in Game 1 and injured his lower back, leaving the game at the 1:46 mark of the first quarter. He re-entered the game early in the second quarter only to exit again shortly after. He was then ruled out for the remainder of the contest. 

The Bucks will look to regroup after falling to the Heat at home, 130-117. Prior to the injury, Antetokounmpo scored six points and grabbed three rebounds in 11 minutes.

Antetokounmpo missed 19 games during the regular season, and the Bucks put together a respectable 11-8 record without the MVP finalist, including a 7-2 mark at home. However, two of those losses — both on the road — came at the hands of Miami.
