Traveling becomes hectic with back-to-back road games and no rest in between for the star players. However, Giannis Antetokounmpo still has the ability to deliver in every faceoff. After yesterday’s scuffle, the resulting technical foul, and the controversial ejection, the center is back on the court.

Khris Middleton has also recovered and got back in the game after weeks of being ruled out. Even Giannis was under speculation to come off the bench in tonight’s game. However, tonight, he has moved up a significant list, closing in on Kevin Durant.

Giannis Antetokounmpo had another game with 50+ points

The Milwaukee Bucks (5-2) are up against the Indiana Pacers tonight at G. Bridge Fieldhouse. The Bucks, however, lost the game by a fluctuating margin with the best-in-class defense of the star center. With 54 points, 12 rebounds, and 3 assists in the pocket, Giannis has set another record. Along with scoring another double-double, the player has moved up on the “Players with the Most 50-Point Game” list. 8 months ago, 2x MVP was ranked at No. 15, and after tonight’s tally, he has moved to No. 13. Together with Bernard King and Dominique Wilkins, the Greek Freak is just three games away from surpassing Kevin Durant.

The Bucks’ point guard, Damian Lillard, is at No. 6 with 16 games and a 50+ point score to his name. Surpassing LeBron James and Stephen Curry, Lillard is still far from tying with James Harden. Although the players graced the gameplay with stellar free throws and jump shots, the team could cope with the offense.

Damian Lillad was out with an injury, while Giannis and Middleton handled the game in all four quarters. The Bucks had a rough start with a significant lag in the first quarter; however, the franchise picked up in the second one. The two-man play of Giannis and Bobby Portis helped the team clinch a few points. However, the Bucks fell behind in the race later in the fourth quarter.
