On April 16th, 2023, Giannis Antetokounmpo, a star basketball player for the Milwaukee Bucks, suffered a knee injury during a game against the Boston Celtics. The injury occurred in the third quarter of the game, when Giannis landed awkwardly on his left leg after a jump shot attempt. He immediately grabbed his knee in pain and had to be helped off the court.
The Bucks medical staff examined Giannis and determined that he had suffered a significant injury to his left knee, which required him to be taken to a local hospital for further evaluation. The severity of the injury is not yet known, but early reports indicate that it could potentially be a season-ending injury.
Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the most talented and dynamic players in the NBA, and his absence would be a significant blow to the Milwaukee Bucks. He is a two-time league MVP, a five-time All-Star, and has led the Bucks to the playoffs in each of the past four seasons.

The Athletic’s Zach Harper says the NBA should ban charges
“The charge isn’t really a basketball play… It’s really not, especially not anymore. Not with today’s athleticism. The charge is a bailout call for the defense.”
