Milwaukee Bucks: Giannis Antetokounmpo’s 2018 All-Star Game highlights

Rim-rockin’

Although this was relatively tame by Giannis’ standards, it still was a perfect example of both the athleticism and intensity that the 23-year-old brings every time he steps on the court.

Finding himself wide open in the paint, Antetokounmpo almost dropped the pass from DeMar DeRozan, but was able to recover quickly, using his long arms to pick the ball up off the floor.

Without any hesitation, and in a single, fluid movement, Antetokounmpo brought the ball straight up and exploded into a forceful dunk, leaving the nearby Victor Oladipo floundering with no chance of impacting the play.

In years past, this dunk would have blended into the background in an All-Star game, but with much less showboating and a greater intensity all around on this occasion, this dunk from Giannis remained notable.
