The NBA has been known to have problems with its officiating over the years, but when it comes to travels there have been many instances of missed calls that have left fans and even commentators perplexed by the lack of consistency.

Tuesday night displayed this once again when the Milwaukee Bucks took on the New York Knicks and former NBA champion Giannis Antetokounmpo was at the center of the drama as Reggie Miller and the rest of the broadcast team was stunned.
This legitimately might be the worst travel I have ever seen in my entire life…

Antetokoumpo was roasted online for gathering the ball well beyond the three-point line before carrying the ball into the lane and proceeding to finish the sequence with a contested shot near the basket. Unfortunately for the Knicks, the referees didn’t call the Milwaukee star for a travel and the play stood.
Obviously the NBA has a lot of other issues to worry about right now, including the massive FBI investigations that recently resulted in Chauncey Billups, Terry Rozier and other current and former basketball stars being questioned by the law enforcement agency.
