Giannis Antetokounmpo is having himself an NBA Finals. What he is doing right now is absolutely incredible. He had 42 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists last night. This is his second-straight 40 point game. That is the first one of Giannis’ career. It’s a good time for it to happen. Everything that Antetokounmpo is doing puts himself in categories with complete legends. It is unbelievable. So many big names like Shaquille O’Neal, Michael Jordan, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and a lot of others. Let’s take a look at

There are only three players who had 30-10-5 through three quarters. Giannis is now the fourth one.

Shaq was the only guy with 40 points and 10 rebounds in back-to-back NBA Finals game. Now it is him and Giannis. Both stat lines are absolutely absurd.

Only two players in NBA history had 40+ points and 10+ rebounds in back-to-back Finals games.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is going to another level right now. Giannis seems to be making a leap. Even though he already has two MVPs, it seems like his game is going to new heights. No matter what happens to the Bucks, there is reason to be excited about the Bucks.
