Antetokounmpo (ankle) is listed as questionable to play Thursday in Sacramento, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Analysis:

Antetokounmpo went down with a scary ankle injury Wednesday against the Blazers, rolling his ankle without contact on a drive to the hoop and crashing to the floor without much bracing. While it initially appeared to much more serious, Antetokounmpo was able to limp off on his own power and reportedly wanted to return to the game but was persuaded not to do so by the team's medical staff. The official diagnosis is just a sprain, though Antetokounmpo is likely dealing with considerable swelling. He'll test it out during warmups, at which point an official decision on his status will be made.
