Giannis Antetokounmpo's Dunk Went Viral In 76ers-Bucks Game
USA TODAY Sports

On Thursday evening, the Milwaukee Bucks are hosting the Philadelphia 76ers in Wisconsin.  

During the game, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo had a big highlight that got a lot of views on social media.  

Antetokounmpo spun around his defender, which created space for him to throw down a one-handed dunk.  

Antetokounmpo had five points, four rebounds and four assists while shooting 2/5 from the field in his first 15 minutes of playing time. 

The All-Star forward came into the evening with fantastic averages of 30.8 points, 11.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.0 blocks per contest while shooting 61.5% from the field and 29.2% from the three-point range in 63 games. 

The Bucks are tied with the Cleveland Cavaliers for the second seed in the Eastern Conference and have a 42-24 record in 66 games.  

They have gone 7-3 over their last ten games and most recently lost to the Sacramento Kings by a score of 129-94.  

Antetokounmpo had 30 points, 13 rebounds, four assists and one steal while shooting 10/17 from the field in 33 minutes of playing time. 

Following the 76ers, the Bucks will remain at home to host the Phoenix Suns on Sunday afternoon in Wisconsin.  

At home, they are 25-7 in 32 games. 

Antetokounmpo was the 15th pick in the 2013 NBA Draft and is in his 11th season in the league (all with the Bucks).  

They have been to the playoffs in each of the previous seven seasons and won the 2021 NBA Championship over the Phoenix Suns.
