What happened to Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton?

In the 106-114 defeat against the Phoenix Suns on Feb. 6, Khris sustained an ankle injury that forced him out of the remainder of the game.

Khris Middleton, while trying a shot from the right wing, accidentally stomped on Kevin Durant's foot, causing him to collapse and grab his ankle in agony.

Following the mishap, referees assessed a flagrant '1' foul on Durant for failing to give Middleton adequate space to land.

Middleton managed to stand up and successfully convert his free throws before making his way to the bench without assistance. Despite his initial ability to move, he did not return to the game.

This season has presented challenges for Middleton, as he has missed a total of 25 games. Since Doc Rivers took over as coach, Middleton has only participated in five games.

Giannis Antetokounmpo continues to recover from a hamstring injury, but he is expected to play on Sunday. The star forward played 35 minutes in his last game, indicating that he may not be limited in minutes if cleared to play.
