The Bucks have been very careful with Giannis Antetokounmpo since the All-Star break. Before the break, he suffered a calf strain that caused him to miss a few games. Since then, they have been monitoring his minutes and his calf. A calf strain is what caused him to miss the playoffs last year against the Pacers.
