Giannis Antetokounmpo shot 9-of-20 from the field and 10-of-11 from the foul line in Sunday’s Game 4 loss to the Pacers, tallying 28 points, 15 rebounds, six assists and one steal in 34 minutes.
The loss of Damian Lillard during the first half with a potential Achilles tendon injury did not prevent Giannis from getting his numbers, as he recorded another double-double. Unfortunately, the Bucks did not have the horses needed to make a run after halftime. Already shouldering a heavy workload, Antetokounmpo will have even more on his plate moving forward. Game 5 is on Tuesday night, with the Bucks trailing three games to one.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 37 points (14-of-19 FGs), 12 rebounds, six assists and one steal in the Bucks’ 117-101 victory over the Pacers in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference playoffs on Friday.
Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 34 points (14-of-20 FGs, 6-of-10 FTs), 18 rebounds, seven assists and one block in a 123-115 loss to the Pacers in Game 2 on Tuesday.
Just like in Game 1, Indiana didn’t have any answers for Giannis. Also like in Game 1, that wasn’t enough for Milwaukee to get a win. Antetokounmpo has averaged 35 points and 15 rebounds through the first two games of this series, and while he got more help on Tuesday, it still wasn’t enough. There’s no reason to think Giannis won’t continue to put up dominant numbers for this entire series, but other players will need to step up (like Bobby Portis did in this game) if the Bucks are going to comeback in this series. Game 3 will be in Milwaukee on Friday.
Giannis Antetokounmpo had 36 points (14-of-23 FGs), 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks against the Pacers in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference playoffs on Saturday.
