Giannis Antetokounmpo can do things on a basketball court 99 percent of human beings can only dream of doing. So, as you can imagine, it takes a really special play to draw his amazement.
Damian Lillard is the type of player who can summon those special kind of moments.
Antetokounmpo’s new Milwaukee Bucks teammate did it again Sunday, knocking down a game-winning 3-pointer as time expired in overtime of their game against the Sacramento Kings. Antetokounmpo called it the toughest game-winning shot he’s ever witnessed up close.
Here’s the play for reference:
