The 2023 All-Star weekend culminated last night and there were several eye-catching moments at the grand event, especially the popular slam dunk contest. The Milwaukee Bucks superstar, Giannis Antetokounmpo loved it too and was seen making a video of it. However, while he was recording, the Greek Freak momentarily unleashed wrath on one of the Boston Celtics players who was blocking the view. This, in turn, elicited the attention of fans, who discussed the affair on social media.
The Slam Contest being undoubtedly one of the most exciting events of the All-Star weekend, Antetokounmpo understandably didn’t want any obstruction while recording it. It seems that Grant Williams mistakenly came in the way, though, and had to end up facing Antetokounmpo’s ire.

Antetokounmpo shared a clip recently where he could be seen going gaga over Mac McClung and the Slam Dunk contest. In fact, the seven-time All-Star gave some hilarious reactions while recording the video. The caption of the video read “Slam Dunk went CRAZY!!!”?
However, during the video, the Greek Freak seemingly got a bit annoyed when Williams came in front of his camera. Therefore, the 28-year-old hilariously told the Celtics youngster to “Getchoo ugly a** off my camera man.”
It seems Williams caught a stray:
