MILWAUKEE — Giannis Antetokounmpo is excited about playing with his new Milwaukee Bucks teammates but isn't quite sure how soon that time will come. Antetokounmpo returned to practice Wednesday after missing Milwaukee's final six games before the All-Star break with a strained left calf. But neither he nor coach Doc Rivers was saying whether the two-time MVP would be available Thursday when the Bucks host the Los Angeles Clippers. Antetokounmpo last appeared in a game Feb. 2 and still hasn't played alongside trade-deadline acquisitions Kyle Kuzma, Kevin Porter Jr. and Jericho Sims.
