Playing two games in a row is never easy, especially when traveling nearly 1,900km from Indianapolis to San Antonio. Therefore, Milwaukee Bucks will certainly be seriously affected physically. Traveling long distances and competing continuously requires good preparation and the ability of the player to recover quickly.
That’s also why they needed decisive 3-point shots in the final minutes to overcome Coach Pop’s team. Everyone was surprised when the person who made those two decisive 3-point shots was not Damian Lillard, but the Greek god – Giannis Antetokounmpo. These were also Giannis’ only two successful 3-point shots throughout the match.
Throughout the match, Giannis Antetokounmpo was nearly unstoppable, unless he was spectacularly cleared by Victor Wembanyama late in the game. This little god scored 44 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists, playing very impressively and making a difference for his team. Giannis showed his excellence and versatility in this match.
On the opposite side, Victor Wembanyama also played very well with 27 points, 9 rebounds and 5 clearances, although he only played for 26 minutes on the court. This shows Wembanyama’s ability to create disruption and a positive influence in the match. Although he did not have much playing time, he made an important contribution to the team’s success.
