Giannis Antetokounmpo set to rejoin Bucks in Florida after COVID-19 absence
Giannis Antetokounmpo’s absence from the Milwaukee Bucks has been a topic of concern following his recent COVID-19 diagnosis. However, head coach Doc Rivers provided a reassuring update regarding the superstar’s return.
Antetokounmpo missed the team’s Media Day and the onset of training camp due to the positive test result. As the Bucks prepared to head to Florida for their training activities, Rivers made it clear that the two-time MVP is on his way back.
“He’ll be flying in either tonight or in the morning,” Rivers confirmed, as reported by Ben Steele of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. This news signals a quick turnaround for Antetokounmpo, who is eager to rejoin his teammates and continue their preparations for the upcoming season.
The Bucks will undoubtedly welcome back their leader, as they look to build on last season’s accomplishments and aim for another championship run. With training camp in full swing, the anticipation of Antetokounmpo’s return adds an extra layer of excitement to the team’s dynamic in Florida.
