Giddey Triple-Double in Bulls loss | 00:53
Giannis Antetokounmpo nailed a buzzer-beater and then mocked Indiana fans for booing ex-Pacers star Myles Turner in his return to Indianapolis on Tuesday (AEDT).
The 17-foot jumper saw Milwaukee beat the understrength Pacers 117-115, capping off a strong night for the Greek superstar, who had 33 points, 13 rebounds and five assists.
But his new teammate Turner, the former Pacers center, was the headliner after moving from the Eastern conference champions to their divisional rivals in the off-season.

Turner was booed all night, including during a pre-game video tribute, and responded with his own boos against Pacers fans when he hit a three during the game.
He then hit a tiebreaking two-pointer with 2:22 left in the game on an otherwise quiet night. His replacement, Isaiah Jackson, had 21 points and 10 rebounds in his highest-scoring game in almost four years, as the Pacers came back from 11 points down with 6:08 left in the game, tying it with 14.6 seconds to play.
But then came Antetokounmpo’s buzzer-beater, after which he also mocked Pacers fans with boos.
The result was further soured for the Pacers as Aussie Johnny Furphy - who had more rebounds than Turner at halftime - limped off with a left ankle injury. He then left the locker room on crutches.
The second-year player has been battling foot and ankle injuries since the pre-season and had played just twice this season prior to today.
