Shams: NBA is investigating the Bucks for their handling of the player participation policy and potential inconsistent statements regarding the health of Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Giannis Antetokounmpo said he’s healthy enough to play and the Bucks are sitting him out against his wishes. Notable quotes from Giannis, via @eric_nehm: "You know who you are dealing with. So for somebody to come and tell me to not play or not to compete, it’s like a slap in my face. So, I don’t know where the relationship goes from there." "I’m available to play, but I’m not in the game. I’m available to play today. Right now. I’m available. Do I look like I’m not available? … I don’t see myself in the first 12. I don’t see myself in the starting lineup. I don’t know what game is being played right here, I just don’t wanna be a part of it." "I've never seen a case of my caliber of player saying it publicly: I want to f–-ing play. You know what I’m saying? I don’t think I’ve seen this. So, if there needs to be an investigation, great. There should be. I don’t know. There should be. Until we figure something out."
