Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo is undoubtedly one of the most athletic players in the NBA today. It has made him earn the nickname The Greek Freak, for continuing to pull off some unbelievable plays throughout his career.

On Wednesday against the Houston Rockets, Antetokounmpo added another play to his already impressive highlight reel. Manning the paint and preventing Clint Capela to score on an easy bucket, the two-time All-Star showed that not even an elbow to the face can stop him from blocking a shot, sending back Capela's shot before dropping to the floor.

The good news was Antetokounmpo finished the game and did not appear to be hampered by the hit to the face he received.
