First, it was Jrue Holiday suffering an ankle injury on opening night, then Khris Middleton entering the league’s health and safety protocols, and now they’ll be without star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo in Friday’s matchup against the Boston Celtics due to a sprained ankle. While Holiday has recently returned to the lineup, Middleton is still sidelined along with Antetokounmpo, leaving the Bucks shorthanded against Jayson Tatum and the Celtics. How much time will Antetokounmpo miss with this injury?...

Antetokounmpo’s game, on the other hand, had a lot to say. The summary: 32 points, 13 rebounds (11 defensive) and six assists in 27 minutes for the Bucks against a Thunder team that had won five in a row and 14 of its last 17. Giannis sat the final 14 minutes as his squad completed a 133-86 victory. Antetokounmpo scored most of his points near the rim, because why wouldn’t someone 6-11 with a nose for the goal score from there, but there were also two 3-pointers, which gave him 79 for the season....

While everyone is buzzing about next Monday’s matchup between the Chiefs and Rams, fans first had to sit through the antithesis of that game — the 1-7 Giants and the 2-7 49ers on “Monday Night Football.” Still, despite their terrible records, the 2-7 49ers and 1-7 Giants played an entertaining game that came down to the final play. Eli Manning led the Giants on a nine-play, 75-yard drive in the closing minutes, ending it with a short touchdown pass to Sterling Shepard with less than a minute remaining....
