Anthony Edwards and the Timberwolves may have defeated Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks. However, it was anything but easy for the franchise.
The Greek Freak poured on for an incredible 40 points, 16 rebounds, and 7 assists, on an efficient 15 of 23 from the field (65.2%), and 3 of 6 from three (50%). Simply put, even in a loss, this man was essentially at his unstoppable best.
After the game, Ant was understandably ecstatic. But, clearly, he couldn’t get himself to forget the greatness he had just witnessed.
Speaking to reporters after the game, the Minnesota star was asked to comment on Giannis Antetokounmpo. And boy, did he not hold back.
Anthony Edwards calls Giannis Antetokounmpo unstoppable despite grabbing the win
Okay, we know that we’ve spoken about this before, but we feel like this needs to be mentioned again… GIANNIS ANTETOKOUNMPO IS SHOOTING THREES NOW?! CONSISTENTLY?!
It may be time to pack it up, lads. And it seems that Ant certainly agrees with that notion. Take a look at the tweet below to see what he said on the matter.
Jokes aside, this is some GOAT-level activity right here. Giannis Antetokounmpo has turned into a damn near unstoppable player on the offensive end of the floor. And given that he is a candidate for defensive player of the year almost every season now, do we now have a player better than Michael Jordan?
Stans of the Bulls legend might hate us for saying this, but the potential is certainly there. Now we just need to see if he will ever realize the power vested in him.
