Portis, 27, exited Monday’s game early in the fourth quarter after registering 18 points and 10 rebounds. The Arkansas product has played in every game this season, averaging 14.1 points and 10.1 rebounds.
Portis is expected to miss at least seven games, according to Milwaukee’s two-week timeline. His absence is yet another sting for the Bucks, who have yet to be at full strength for an extended period of time this season. Giannis Antetokounmpo and Khris Middleton just returned from injury-related absences of their own.
The Bucks are 30-17 and third in the Eastern Conference standings.
