Giannis Antetokounmpo leaves Game 4 with knee injury

Giannis Antetokounmpo left Game 4 of the Bucks‘ series with the Hawks in the third quarter after injuring his knee. He did not return to the game.

The initial diagnosis is a hyperextended knee, according to the Bucks, but more tests are likely to come to determine the extent of the injury and a potential return timeline.

Antetokounmpo had to be carried off the court by his brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo before walking the rest of the way himself. He initially returned to the bench before heading back to the locker room and being ruled out for the rest of the game. GM Jon Horst headed to the tunnel as well, tweets Ben Golliver of the Washington Post.

Hawks guard Trae Young missed Game 4 altogether due to a foot injury, so neither Atlanta nor Milwaukee is assured of having its star player available for Game 5 on Thursday. The Hawks’ win on Tuesday has evened the series at two games apiece.
