📅 On this day in 2021, the @Milwaukee Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo had 50 points, 14 rebounds, and five blocks in a Finals-clinching win over the Suns.
Since the NBA began tracking blocks in 1973-74, he’s the only player to record at least 50p/10r/5b in a playoff game. pic.twitter.com/V4XmGedwsC10:01 AM

Finally got a chance to watch Rise on Disney Plus. Giannis and his family’s story is truly one of a kind. Gotta admire their love for one another and respect their hustle to make it from humble beginnings all the way to the NBA. – 1:16 AM

“He did remind me of a young Giannis,” he continued. “I hate the comparison because Giannis is one of one and hopefully Chet will become one of one, but watching him move in transition, it reminded me of a young Giannis.” -via TalkBasket / July 21, 2022
