LA Clippers take wild dig at Giannis after ladder issue for Bucks star

The Los Angeles Clippers aimed a wild dig at Giannis Antetokounmpo after the Milwaukee Bucks star was slammed for throwing a ladder following their defeat at Philadelphia.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has been under the spotlight since the Milwaukee Bucks threw a ladder off the court after an altercation with staff at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. The 76ers defeated the Bucks on a bad shooting night for Giannis was not at his best, as he made only four of his 15 total attempts at free throws – besides missing a few more post-game.

Even though Giannis had a night where he racked up 25 points, 14 rebounds, and 4 assists – he was not at his very best considering his very lofty standards. The Greek Freak had a disastrous shooting night as he could only make 10 out of his total 22 attempted field goals at a success rate of 45%, and to make it even worse – Giannis made only 4 of his total 15 attempted free throws.

Giannis’ shooting form from the free throw line looked disastrous and uncharacteristic, and the Bucks superstar wasted no time to get going on his improvement as he immediately took aim at the hoop following the game. The Bucks star also was seen throwing a ladder away from the court post-game in what was perceived as a disrespectful gesture to the Wells Fargo Center staff.

Giannis has been under the spotlight ever since, with many in the NBA community chipping in on their two cents about the situation – the latest of them being the LA Clippers’ Twitter account.
