The Milwaukee Bucks suffered two losses on Wednesday night against the Chicago Bulls. Not only did they endure a stunning 114-110 defeat in Game 2 of their first-round series, but they lost star Khris Middleton to an MCL sprain.

It's still yet to be determined how much time Middleton will miss. Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo is hoping for the best:

Middleton left the game midway through the fourth quarter when he planted awkwardly on a spin move. The Bucks star tried to stay in the game but couldn't and wound up going to the locker room, never to return. Milwaukee made a late push, only to fall short.

The defending champions are still the favorite in this series, but the Bucks should be sweating a bit now. They were in danger of losing Game 1 after running up a 16-point lead early and then actually lost Game 2, losing home-court advantage in the process. Now they face the prospect of possibly being without Middleton on the road in Chicago, and perhaps longer.

Giannis will surely be up for this challenge after a tough loss. He was dominant in Game 2, putting up 33 points, 18 rebounds and nine assists in the loss. He almost single-handedly brought the Bucks back at various points in the second half and will now be counted on even more, even if Middleton somehow doesn't miss any time. He's not worried:

Milwaukee now finds itself in a much bigger fight than expected in this first round after most prognosticators figured this would be a sweep.
