While Giannis Antetokunmpo had 36 points and 12 rebounds, his supporting cast was only 2-12 at the shots created by him by his death. As a Milwaukee team, he had only 9-37 out of three (24.3%) and allowed their offensive struggle to defend them.

“The most arduous part of the whole process was that the first few days, when I really started to feel it. It was not obvious that it was a blood clot, but when I found out that it was, well, I knew what it was and why it was so sore and swollen.
“But I would say that after three to five days I felt normal. I felt like I could do everything I could do physically. But the fact was that I still had a blood clot in my leg.”
