Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo remains out for Game 2 of series against Pacers with calf strain

MILWAUKEE — Giannis Antetokounmpo sat out Game 2 of the Milwaukee Bucks' Eastern Conference first-round playoff series against the Indiana Pacers on Tuesday night because of a lingering left calf strain. The two-time MVP also missed Game 1 and the Bucks' last three regular-season games. Bucks coach Doc Rivers says his star forward is "getting closer." Game 3 is Friday in Indianapolis. The Bucks beat the Pacers in Game 1 thanks in part to Damian Lillard, who scored 35 points, all in the first half.
