In gluttonous mode, Giannis Antetokounmpo still makes history

After his huge game against the Bulls, punctuated by 45 points, 22 rebounds and 7 assists, Giannis Antetokounmpo did it again against Wolves, deprived of Rudy Gobert, who could do nothing to stop him.

The Greek scored 43 points at 14/23 to shoot, took 20 rebounds and distributed 5 assists in the victory of his team. Posting at least 40 points, 20 rebounds and 5 assists for two consecutive games, this does not happen every day since only two players had managed to do so before the double MVP of Milwaukee.

These are two legends now extinct: Wilt Chamberlain and Elgin Baylor. The first had done so five times, the last time on January 6 and 7, 1966, the second only once.

“It’s great to be surrounded by these guys”commented on the double MVP for ESPNfaced with its entry into this very closed circle. “I just want to win, so I try to do my best. »

Despite the Bucks’ poor form in recent days, Antetokounmpo has exceeded 40 points four times in the last six games. Over this period, he thus turns to 38 points and 14.6 rebounds on average.

“His strength, his determination, his will to attack again and again, his ability to find his teammates: he is built for that”, enumerates admiringly Mike Budenholzer.
