Giannis Antetokounmpo Stacks Stat Sheet Despite FT Struggles
4 years agoMilwaukee Bucks power forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo collected his third consecutive double-double to kick off the year during Sunday's loss to the Knicks, amassing 27 points and 13 rebounds. By all accounts, it was another stellar fantasy performance from Antetokounmpo, who added five assists and three steals while shooting 9-for-15 overall. If there was any setback, it was in his five missed free throws, which is becoming something of a pattern during the early portion of the year. Despite that, the reigning two-time MVP's production across the board is so consistently gaudy that any flaws are merely minor blimps of an inconvenience. He'll get two consecutive showings versus the Heat beginning Tuesday, against whom he shot just 53.7 percent from the line during last season's Eastern Conference Semifinals.
