Milwaukee Bucks big man Brook Lopez was all praises for his superstar teammate Giannis Antetokounmpo following a dominant performance by the reigning league Most Valuable Player on Friday. Lopez was all serious during the post-game press conference, but we could not help but notice how cute his 101 Dalmatians face mask was.
Here's a close look at Lopez's adorable mask:

Lopez's message hit the nail on the head, though, as he described how Giannis Antetokounmpo put forth another tremendous performance in his first game back following a four-month hiatus.
“I don’t want to normalize what he does but that’s what @Giannis_An34 Giannis does.” Brook Lopez says the reigning MVP is “good to go” as the team and game closer and “what he works so hard for.” #Bucks pic.twitter.com/KtPtUb5p7u

Antetokounmpo finished with 36 points on 14-of-20 shooting, with 15 boards, seven assists, a steal, a block, and one 3-pointer, as he led Milwaukee to a 119-112 win over the Boston Celtics. Lopez was not bad himself, logging 14 points, four rebounds, a steal, and a very impressive six blocked shots.
Milwaukee's opening victory has increased their margin to seven games against the second-seeded Toronto Raptors in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks are closing in on securing the top spot in the East with still seven seeding games remaining for them.
Milwaukee will be back in action on Sunday in what should be a tremendous matchup against the Houston Rockets. James Harden also had quite a performance on Friday, leading his team to a 153-149 overtime win against the Dallas Mavericks with 49 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists. Much like Antetokounmpo, the Rockets superstar has also entered the restart scorching hot. We should be in store for an amazing showcase between two of the best offensive players in the game today in Giannis vs. Harden.
