Some of the game's greats have used their clutch gene to propel themselves into their lofty perch in NBA history. For the Milwaukee Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo, everyone knows he has a good shot at reaching historically-elite status.
However, he still has to work his way to a consistent outside shot. But while that hasn't been realized yet, there's no stopping Antetokounmpo from delivering in the clutch. Thankfully for Milwaukee, he's the Greek Freak.
Under the final minute of the Bucks' game against the Boston Celtics, the visiting team was able to stop Milwaukee on offense. Jaylen Brown ignited a fastbreak attack in hopes of making it a one-possession game still in favor of the hosts.
Brown evaded a road full of deer, but little did he know that the meanest one was right behind him, ready to pin his shot to the glass.

The Bucks went on to emerge victorious after the final buzzer, 106-102. Antetokounmpo led the way with his usual all-around mastery, registering 29 points, 11 rebounds, six assists, one steal, and two blocks. He received some splendid support coming from Khris Middleton who had 20 points, eight rebounds, nine assists, and three steals.
Brown paved the way for the Celtics as he finished the night with 24 points, four rebounds, two assists, two steals, and a block.
The Bucks still sit at the eighth spot in the East, but a first-round matchup with this same Celtics team is very much in play. However, Boston will be a different monster by then with Kyrie Irving expected to be back in action.
