Giannis Antetokounmpo Records First 35-17-20 Stat Line In NBA History

Giannis Antetokounmpo finished with 35 points, 17 rebounds, and 20 assists as the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Philadelphia 76ers 126-113 on Thursday night.

Antetokounmpo is the first player in league history to record that stat line.

Antetokounmpo finished the game shooting 12-19 from the field. 

“When you’re the primary ball handler, you just gotta keep on making good decisions for the team,” Antetokounmpo said after the game. “I feel like most of the time, I try to make the best decision for myself or for my teammates.”

Antetokounmpo is also the third player this season to have 30 points and 20 assists in a game after Nikola Jokic and Trae Young.

The Bucks were coming off Tuesday’s win against the Suns where they shot 68.9% from the field.
