On the season, Antetokounmpo is averaging 31.2 points, 10.8 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game. He's shooting 62.9% from the field and 50.0% from 3-point range.
Giannis will turn 31 on Dec. 6, so ideally the Bucks have him back in action before his birthday. But as far as Friday night is concerned, it's still up in the air.
