MILWAUKEE — It's time for Today's Talker! This morning is all about Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo. And just to be clear we won't be talking about his dad jokes or his favorite snacks.
That's right, this is all about his mad skills on the court that have led him to new records. Check this out!
On Saturday, Giannis became the first player in Bucks History to score 44+ points in 28 minutes or less.
