The league has already interviewed Antetokounmpo, members of the Bucks and the team’s doctors, a person with direct knowledge of the matter confirmed to USA TODAY Sports.

The person spoke under the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly on the matter.

Antetokounmpo has not played since March 15, and the team has struggled during the absence of its star player.
