Is Giannis Antetokounmpo playing tonight against the Sacramento Kings?
NBA star Giannis Antetokounmpo's availability for the Milwaukee Bucks next game is still not confirmed as he is recovering from a hand injury

Giannis Antetokounmpo
The Milwaukee Bucks have been without their all-star Giannis Antetokounmpo for the last three games, and fans are waiting for the star’s return. Giannis has been an MVP candidate this season and instrumental to the Bucks having the #1 seed. Giannis has all NBA fantasy players on the edge of their seats with his injury news, as he is always a considerable fantasy scorer.
The Milwaukee Bucks are 2-1 since Gianni’s injury, with their loss coming in their latest game against the Golden State Warriors. The Bucks blew an 8-point lead in the last 2 minutes as Stephen Curry dominated them.
However, with Giannis, the Bucks beat the Warriors in December last year as the Greek Freak got 30 points and 12 rebounds that game.
Is Giannis Antetokounmpo playing tonight?

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been listed as questionable for Monday night’s game against the Sacramento Kings. Giannis has been suffering from a hand injury he picked up while attempting one of his acrobatic blocks. Antetokounmpo was also listed as questionable for the previous game and did not end up featuring, so fantasy fans cannot have their hopes up yet.
The Milwaukee Bucks will be without Giannis again as they take on the #2 team in the Western Conference. Antetokounmpo scored 35 points in his last encounter against the Sacramento Kings earlier this season and would have hoped to add to his MVP-caliber season tonight. However, the Greek Freak will have no problem taking some rest, as the Milwaukee Bucks have taken control in the East as the #1 seed.
Where is Giannis Antetokounmpo playing?

Giannis Antetokounmpo is a strong and dominating power forward, but it was a long road to get where he is now. The 2xMVP started his NBA career as a skinny center coming off the bench for the Milwaukee Bucks. Giannis spent hours in the gym to develop his Greek god physique and has dominated the league ever since. Antetokounmpo has improved and expanded his offensive bag every year he has played in the company.
Antetokounmpo used to focus on dominating by getting to the rim for dunks and layups, which he does at incredible efficiency. Giannis evolved his game into post-up play and smooth mid-range jumpers. The Greek Freak has also become an adept passer while bringing the ball up the floor during transitions. This is one of the many reasons why NBA Fantasy fans want to see Antetokounmpo back on an NBA court so badly.
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s fantasy updates and predictions
Antetokounmpo has been averaging 31 points and 12 rebounds in an incredible season for the Milwaukee Bucks. The NBA Champion has averaged 50 fantasy points per game this season and ranks in the top 3 amongst power forwards regarding selections. Giannis is a 2x league MVP and is in the race to win this season, despite Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid being in the thick of the conversation.

Giannis has dropped in overall fantasy points from last season, where he averaged 56 fantasy ppg. However, with Khris Middleton back for parts of this season, Giannis has a reduced workload compared to last and is still playing at a very high level. The Greek Freak is a 7x all-star and one of the only players to win an MVP and DPOY in the same season.
Giannis Antetokounmpo alternative picks for your fantasy team

Since Giannis is still listed as probable, his involvement in the game is unlikely, so NBA fantasy players will need some alternatives. Jayson Tatum is an excellent alternative for Giannis, averaging 50.5 points for the Boston Celtics as the #2 seed in the East. Tatum and the Celtics will be taking on the tanking Houston Rockets, giving him an excellent chance to get a big score.
The Sacramento Kings will look to take advantage of Giannis’ absence making Domantas Sabonis a key player for the Kings. Sabonis is a power forward on a revived Kings team this season, averaging 46 fantasy points a game. Sabonis is the most popular player in fantasy selections amongst management forwards this season, and for a good reason. The Lithuanian international is averaging 19 points, 12 rebounds, and seven assists for the Kings this season, making him an ideal pick to replace Giannis tonight.
