Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo had the time of his life on Sunday night at the All-Star Game as Team LeBron beat Team Durant thanks to a game-winning jumper from The King. The Greek Freak also enjoyed a solid performance, dropping 30 points, grabbing 12 rebounds, and dishing out six assists.
Following the contest, Giannis expressed his gratitude for being involved in such a special event while also acknowledging the ridiculous 50-point showing of Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, who drained 16 triples.
I love this game ❤️ Steph went crazy 16 threes! 😱🤯 pic.twitter.com/I2IDaS2sa9

The Bucks big man isn't the only one in awe. No one could believe that Curry literally scored 48 points from beyond the arc. Absolutely unheard of. This is exactly why he is considered the greatest shooter of all time.
As for Giannis, this was his sixth All-Star appearance in eight seasons. He's already solidified himself as one of the most dominant players the game has ever seen and finally fulfilled his title aspirations last season with the Bucks. Giannis is in the midst of another solid campaign as well, averaging 29.4 points, 11.2 boards, and 6.0 dimes. Talk about versatility.
The Bucks are currently at 36-24 on the season and just 2.5 games out of first place in the tightly knit Eastern Conference. They will begin their second half on Saturday against the new-look Brooklyn Nets at home.
