Antetokounmpo's (ankle) injury isn't considered serious, and he could return as soon as in Thursday's game against the Kings, the Racine Journal Times reports.

Analysis:

Owners can take a huge breath of relief at this news, as it appears Antetokounmpo won't be missing too many (if any) games with his ankle sprain. With rookie Jabari Parker (knee) deemed out for the season, Antetokounmpo will have a chance to shine. He hasn't gotten his act together quite yet this season, averaging just 12.2 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 0.6 blocks per game. However, with heavy minutes and a high usage rate, he has the potential to produce solid fantasy lines.
