According to multiple reports, the upcoming NBA All-Star Game will be played without the Milwaukee Bucks' superstar, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who continues to sit out due to a calf strain he sustained earlier this week.

Antetokounmpo, who was named an Eastern Conference starter, has missed three games so far with the injury. The 30-year-old forward has not played since Feb. 2, when he put up 30 points in a loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.

Antetokounmpo was selected to Team Chuck for the All-Star game, which will be a pickup-style tournament, with four teams in total, as part of the league's efforts to revive All-Star Weekend. Two semifinal games will be played to 40 points, with a championship played to 25. The games will take place next Sunday.

This year marked Antetokounmpo's ninth All-Star selection in 11 seasons. Antetokounmpo earned the most votes in the Eastern Conference, both in terms of player votes and fan votes, on his way to being named an All-Star starter.

The NBA will announce a replacement for Antetokounmpo.

The Greek forward is reportedly expected to return to the court after the All-Star break. He is set to miss Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Monday's meeting with the Golden State Warriors and Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Bucks' first game after the break is on Feb. 20.
