Scores 29 points in win
Antetokounmpo posted 29 points (12-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-8 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals across 19 minutes in Saturday's 116-99 win over the Nets.
Analysis
Antetokounmpo delivered one of his most dominant performances of the season in terms of efficiency, missing just three shots from the field and needing fewer than 20 minutes to score 29 points. He seems completely healthy from the thigh injury that sidelined him for four games between Nov. 20 and Nov. 26. In his two games since returning to the hardwood, Antetokounmpo has made 22 of his 29 shots from the floor, as well as going 14-for-22 from the charity stripe.

Antetokounmpo (thigh) is available for Saturday's game against the Nets, Justin Garcia of the Locked On Podcast Network reports.
Analysis
Antetokounmpo said Friday after the loss to the Knicks that he intended to play Saturday, and he'll end up suiting up in the second leg of Milwaukee's back-to-back set. The two-time MVP has averaged 29.0 points, 10.0 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game since the beginning of November.

Officially questionable Saturday
Antetokounmpo is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Nets due to left adductor strain injury management, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
The star forward made his return from a four-game absence in Friday's 118-109 loss to the Knicks, playing just 28 minutes but finishing with 30 points (10-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-14 FT), 15 rebounds, eight assists and one steal. Per Jim Owczarski of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Antetokounmpo said after the contest that he intended to play Saturday in the second half of the back-to-back set, though he's officially been listed as questionable. Final word on his status should arrive closer to the game's 8 p.m. ET tipoff.

Sniffs triple-double in return
Antetokounmpo registered 30 points (10-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 10-14 FT), 15 rebounds, eight assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Friday's 118-109 loss to the Knicks.
Analysis
Antetokounmpo returned after a four-game absence Friday and looked impressive, missing just four of his shots and ending just two dimes away from a triple-double. The Bucks came up short in the game, but they should be a far more dangerous team with Antetokounmpo as their go-to weapon on offense. This was Antetokounmpo's seventh game with at least 30 points and 10 boards this season. The star forward revealed he'll play Saturday against the Nets in the second leg of this back-to-back set, according to Jim Owczarski of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. He also acknowledged that he'll play more than the 28 minutes he logged Friday.

Available to play Friday
Antetokounmpo (thigh) is available for Friday's game against the Knicks, Justin Garcia of Locked On Bucks reports.
Analysis
Antetokounmpo was listed as a game-time decision for Friday's game, but after going through shootaround unscathed, the star forward will be available. This marks the return from a four-game absence for the star forward, who's averaging 31.2 points, 10.8 rebounds, 6.8 assists and 1.2 blocks per game this season.

Listed as questionable
Antetokounpo (thigh) is questionable for Friday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis
This isn't much of an update for Milwaukee's franchise player, as he remains day-to-day. He was also questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat before ultimately getting ruled out. He could be shaping up to be a game-time call against New York.

Won't play Wednesday
Antetokounmpo (groin) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Heat, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
Antetokounmpo landed a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's contest -- the first time he's been labeled as anything other than out since suffering a low-grade left groin strain Nov. 17 -- but he won't make his return from a three-game absence to face Miami. His absence will mean more opportunities for Bobby Portis and Jericho Sims in the frontcourt. Antetokounmpo's next chance to play will come Friday at New York.

Gets questionable tag
Antetokounmpo (adductor) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Heat, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
It appears that Antetokounmpo is making swift progress in his recovery from an adductor strain. His status could come down to a game-time decision based on pregame warmups. If the superstar forward is upgraded to available, Bobby Portis' rise in streaming appeal would take a big hit.
