MILWAUKEE — Giannis Antetokounmpo returned for the Milwaukee Bucks' matchup with the New York Knicks after missing a game with a hamstring issue. Bucks coach Doc Rivers said at his pregame availability Sunday that the two-time MVP will play against the Knicks. Antetokounmpo had been listed as questionable on the Bucks' injury report. Antetokounmpo had missed the Bucks' 117-111 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Friday due to what the team described as tendinopathy in his left hamstring. Tendinopathy is pain that generally results from overuse.
