Giannis Antetokounmpo drops 40
by Jeff Latka | Bucks Correspondent | Wed, Nov 8th 1:00pm EST
After two consecutive games of shooting below 50 percent from the field, Antetokounmpo got back to his incredibly efficient ways as he secured his second 40-point game of the season and missed just five field goal attempts in the process. He also matched a season-high with four blocks. On the downside, however, Antetokounmpo fouled out late in the game and also coughed up a season-high eight turnovers.
Fantasy Impact:
The Greek Freak was the only player in the NBA to average 1.5 steals and 1.5 blocks in 2016, not bad for a player who has seen his scoring average increase by more than four points per game every season of his career. In fact, the production across the board has been on the rise since we first got to know Antetokounmpo in 2013, and there is little reason to think that stops in 2017-18. He shot just 32.1 percent from outside of eight feet last season, something that could be viewed as a flaw, or room for significant growth for a player who doesn't turn 23 until December.
