Bucks coach Doc Rivers said he expects star Giannis Antetokounmpo to require closer to four weeks to recover from the strained right calf he sustained Wednesday night. Antetokounmpo's initial diagnosis projected that he could be sidelined for two to four weeks, but Rivers cautioned against rushing Antetokounmpo back to the court. "I feel like we should learn is with calves -- make sure they're healthy," Rivers said before Friday's game against the Sixers. "So that may take longer than we want. That even may make Giannis frustrated over it, but we just got to try to get that right."
