Giannis Antetokounmpo-led Milwaukee Bucks made their way to a comprehensive 120-100 win over Phoenix Suns in Game 3 of the ongoing NBA Finals series. In doing so, they now reduced their deficit in the series and currently train by a slim 2-1 margin heading into Game 4.
As predicted, it was the ‘Greek Freak’ who stole headlines after he put in a momentous shift to keep his team in the hunt for that elusive NBA Championship title. The towering power forward scored 41 points with 13 rebounds and 6 assists as the Bucks ran riot at the Fiserv Forum in Wisconsin.
Giannis will be key for the Bucks as they aim to win their first-ever NBA title and defeat Devin Booker and the Suns. The 26-year old is renowned the world over for his massive built and athletic prowess. But like any top basketball player, his greatest asset is his hands.
