GAME TWO

After a shaky start to the previous games, Antetokounmpo regained confidence with his free throws in game two.

Thriving under the pressure to perform, the basketballer scored 25 points with nine rebounds and six assists.

The ‘Greek Freak’ made significant improvements, making three of four free throws and avoided violations of the 10-second rule in the Bucks’ 125-91 win that evened the series at 1-1.

Thanasis Antetokounmpo also had the opportunity to join his brother on the court in extra time during the match.
