Giannis Antetokounmpo is set to return for the Milwaukee Bucks in Monday's showdown against the Boston Celtics, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The superstar is officially listed as questionable after missing the last 15 games due to a right calf injury sustained on January 23 against the Denver Nuggets. The Bucks have navigated his absence with a record of 8-7, a significant improvement from previous seasons without him. This marks Antetokounmpo's first game back since the NBA trade deadline, when both he and the team evaluated future options. Milwaukee, currently at 26-33 and ranked No. 11 in the Eastern Conference, is three games behind the Charlotte Hornets for the final play-in spot. Despite missing 29 games this season, Antetokounmpo averages 28.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 5.6 assists in the 30 games played. He is eager to make an impact this season.
