Thanasis Antetokounmpo (health protocols) ruled out for Bucks in Game 5
Milwaukee Bucks forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo will not play Saturday in the team's game against the Phoenix Suns.
What It Means:
Thanasis has entered the NBA's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, and he's been ruled out of Saturday's NBA Finals Game 5. It's unclear what the situation is, but for now, he seems to be the only one who will be affected. Look for Jordan Nwora to potentially pick up a rotation spot.
In 13 playoff games this year, Thanasis has averaged 3.5 minutes.
