INDIANAPOLIS — Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo missed his second straight game Wednesday, just days after his girlfriend gave birth to the couple’s first child.
In addition to sitting out against the Indiana Pacers, Antetokounmpo also missed Monday’s game against the Sacramento Kings.
Milwaukee (46-7) has the NBA’s best record and has won all five games missed by its All-Star forward this season.
After Wednesday’s game, the Bucks have eight days until their next game.
Antetokounmpo, last season’s MVP, will be a team captain at this weekend’s All-Star Game. He is averaging 30 points, 13.5 rebounds and 5.8 assists.
