Paternity leave tonight for Giannis, as Bucks take on Brogdon and Pacers
No Giannis Antetokounmpo tonight for the Milwaukee Bucks.
The new dad, who’s son Liam Charles, was born Monday, is getting some paternity leave.
Milwaukee improved to a perfect 5-0 without the reigning NBA MVP, Monday and now gets a recently struggling Indiana Pacers team tonight.
The Bucks will see a familiar face in Malcolm Brogdon. Milwaukee traded the 27-year-old in the offseason for a first-round pick, instead of re-signing the restricted free agent.
It hasn’t hampered the Bucks, how have the best record in the NBA, 5.5 games up on the No. 2 LA Lakers.
The Bucks have won 14 of their last 15, while Indiana has lost six in a row … five of those six with Victor Oladipo back in the lineup. But, the guard who is considered the Pacers best player, is shooting just 30 percent from the field and 25 percent from deep in scoring 11 points a game since his season debut.
