After New York Knicks star Kristaps Porzingis left in the second quarter with what looked to be a really bad knee injury, there was still a basketball game to be played and it sure was entertaining. The highlight of the game happened early in the third quarter when Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo tried to end Tim Hardaway Jr's career (of course, not literally).

As you can see, Antetokunmpo had no issue rising up over Hardaway Jr, and as most would expect, Twitter went wild.

Kevin Garnett's show Area 21 was clearly impressed.

From Michael Lee of Yahoo Sports:

Giannis Antetokounmpo just Frederic Weis'd Tim Hardaway Jr., dunked & ran back on D like it was nothing #HighHurdles

Rob Perez seemed to have a little too much time on his hands analyzing the dunk.

It was a great dunk no question about it, but at the end of the day the most important part was getting the victory, and they were able to do that too.

The Greek Freak had 23 points, 11 rebounds and 6 assists to pace the Bucks to 103-89 victory, and improve their record to 30-23 and keep them one game ahead of the Pacers for the fifth spot in the Eastern Conference.

The Bucks next game will be on Friday against the Miami Heat where Antetokounmpo will try to throw down a couple of huge slams to try and put Hassan Whiteside on a poster — something he has already done once in his career.
