At first look, it seems that the Serbian national team point guard has sprained his ankle. The game was tied at 42 points a piece when the injury happened.

The Anadolu Efes star did not return to the court or the bench with the team at the start of the third quarter.

It was not the first injury of the game. After his dunk on Nikola Jokic, Kostas Antetokounmpo fell ugly on his foot and went to the bench and then to the locker room a few minutes before Micic's injury.

Per the Greek Basketball Federation report, Kostas Antetokounmpo will not play in the second half, due to a problem in the patellar tendon of the right leg.
