The Sacramento Kings managed to get the better of the Milwaukee Bucks, picking up a 135-133 win at home.
Despite the loss, Giannis Bucks continues to build a strong case for this season's MVP award with a 26-point, 11-rebound, and 8-assist performance; however, it wasn't that line that caught the most attention—it was a noticeable black eye that saw during the game.
Following the defeat, Antetokoumpo spoke up about the injury while having some fun with reporters.
"Actually, I was in Pick' n Save, right? So while I was checking out my groceries, there was this guy who was about to snatch a purse from a lady. So I was like, 'Hey man, what are you doing? Stop!' I went and grabbed him, and he kind of turned and elbowed me in the eye. But then I grabbed him, put him on the floor, took the purse, gave it to the lady, and the lady was safe. I paid for her groceries too, because she was in shock and stuff. You know, the police came and took the guy… took him into custody. So after that, I just went back home, did some treatment, and took a nap."
The two-time MVP's light-hearted response is something reporters have become accustomed to during post-game interviews over the years.
Despite the tough loss in Sacramento, the Bucks remain one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference with a record of 4-2,
The Greek Freak continues to remind everyone that he is one of the most dominant players in the league. So far this season, the two-time MVP is averaging 34.2 points, 13.4 rebounds, and 7.2 assists with inci while shooting 68.4% from the field.
