The 2 time MVP performed well in the 1st quarter against the Rockets yesterday before been hit with an ankle injury after stepping on the foot of Kelly Olynyk.

The forward who was originally slated as probable for the game due to previous injury, got suited up and suffered what could have been avoided.

Head coach Mike Budenholzer statement after the game however hinted the injury may not be as severe as thought. In his words:

"I think we're hopeful that it's not serious,"
"We'll see how he responds to treatment tonight, treatment tomorrow. Get an update at some point tomorrow."

Milwaukee bucks will be hoping their star forward returns right on time for the two games against Brooklyn Nets on Sunday and Tuesday.
