BUCKS REVEAL GIANNIS' OFFICIAL STATUS FOR GAME 5

After he suffered a brutal left knee hyperextension the other night during game four of the Eastern Conference Finals, everyone has been wondering if Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo will play in the next game against the Atlanta Hawks, scheduled for tonight.

According to Shams Charania, Giannis is officially out for the pivotal game.



Losing Giannis for game five is a major blow to the Bucks. The series is currently tied at 2-2, so whoever wins tonight will have a huge advantage and will be one win away from facing the Phoenix Suns in the NBA Finals. Giannis has been a pivotal part of the Bucks' success. Against Atlanta, Antetokounmpo has been putting up an average of 26.5 points a game with 10 rebounds and 5.5 assists.


Meanwhile, Hawks star Trae Young is listed as probable for game five.
