As the NBA trade deadline approaches on Feb. 5, the Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> find themselves fading out of the postseason picture entirely. After games played Jan. 25, the Bucks were 2.5 games behind the Atlanta Hawks<\/a> for the final spot in the Eastern Conference play-in round.<\/p>\n

Complicating matters for the Bucks is the strained right calf injury for Giannis Antetokounmpo<\/a>, who\u00a0is expected to be out indefinitely, according to head coach Doc Rivers<\/a>. It is the second time this season Antetokounmpo has strained his calf, and it could be several weeks before he returns to the court.<\/p>\n
