The Milwaukee Bucks are in the midst of a controversial 2024-25 season. They currently sit at 36-26 on the season, good enough for fourth in the Eastern Conference. With about 20 games left to play there is still a lot to be sorted out.
However, Giannis Antetokounmpo made league history on Sunday Night.

When a lanky teenager from Greece entered the league in 2013, everything changed for Milwaukee. The Bucks drafted Giannis Antetokounmpo 15th overall and transformed him into the franchise’s face, a two-time MVP and Defensive Player of the Year.
A legendary player in the history of the franchise, he led the franchise to its first championship in 50 years in 2021. Every season, however, there is talk about his future.
