Giannis Antetokounmpo in rare air after historic stat line

The Greek Freak keeps getting more special.

Only three other players in NBA history have matched the stat line Giannis Antetokounmpo had Saturday night in the Bucks' 116-96 win over the Chicago Bulls.

Giannis finished with 35 points, nine rebounds, seven assists and seven blocks. Only David Robinson, Charles Barkley and Anthony Davis have ever had 30-plus points, 7-plus assists and 7-plus blocks in a game before.

That's just the kind of season Antetokounmpo has been having. A historic one.
