Well, this is out there.  Looks like we'll know soon if it's legit when the team confirms it.  Apparently the guy has a decent rep.

He looks like a Bucks guy.... why would he say this is good news?

It looked much worse than just a hyperextension. An ACL tear would have him out for next season. No he can heal without surgery and be back in time for next season.

Also this...

It looks like they are taking it as a W since there was no major damage.

Yeah that would make sense.... IF the dude mentioned that in the tweet. All he said was out for season with hyperextended knee and this is good news.

The Bucks list Giannis Antetokounmpo as doubtful for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals with a hyperextended left knee.

There's no way he plays game 5 or 6. Both of those games are this week.

He's probably done for the rest of the season, no matter what. Unless the Bucks advance and they don't care about risking the health of his knee.

From an actual doctor on twitter: Great news! I don’t expect him to return soon. Likely he has a sprain of ACL, PCL & bad bone bruise. Possibly in a couple weeks but those ligaments need time to heal, swelling to calm down and rehab to ‘tighten’ up knee.

Trae and Clint both listed questionable.

A lot of focus being paid to Giannis' knee. 
How do we feel about Trae and to a lesser extent, Clint?

What if one or both sit out game 5? Do we think we can still pull off another road win without them?

Absolutely. No Giannis. Attack the basket with reckless abandon.

Hawks need to not mess around and bury the Bucks early.

Update: Giannis is out! 

I hope Capela can go.  Our chance of winning this one is on the defensive end.
