Giannis Antetokounmpo had a huge game against the Cavs and this is how Giannis reacted to it
What a game the Milwaukee Bucks had. In a heated contest, the Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 117-102 on Friday night.
With this win, the Bucks improved their record (13-5) and now stand 2nd in the Western Conference.
Interestingly, Giannis and his team had to work quite hard to secure the win against the Cavs.
The Bucks had a slow start and at one point of the game, they were even losing by double-figure points. Moreover, the Bucks were riddled with early foul problems, and whatever effort Giannis put on the court went in vain. This was the scene until halftime.
After trailing 63-52 at halftime, the Bucks and Giannis entered the Playoffs mode and came back stronger to erase the deficit to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In this epic showdown, Giannis Antetokounmpo had a huge game, scoring 38 points, grabbing 9 rebounds, and dishing 6 assists. Also, Jevon Carter scored 18 points and Bobby Portis had 14 for the Bucks.
Meanwhile, with this loss, the four-game winning streak of the Cavaliers came to an end. The Cavaliers suddenly went cold in the second half and could not score fluently.
The Cavs were outscored by the Bucks 35-10 in the third quarter of the game and could not come back after this.
Donovan Mitchell led the Cavs with 29 points, 3 rebounds, and 1 assist. Next, Darius Garland added 20 points for Cleveland. After combining to shoot 14 of 26 and score 38 points in the first half, Mitchell and Garland went 4 of 16 for 11 points over the final two periods.
Sadly, Cleveland’s Jarrett Allen suffered a hip injury and could play only 12 minutes and score one point.
Giannis Antetokounmpo was pumped with the fantastic win. To celebrate, Giannis took to Twitter to share an inspirational message.
