Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks has set the all-time franchise scoring record after a 44-point outburst against the star-studded Brooklyn Nets. Antetokounmpo’s franchise record of 14,211 points, broke Hall of Famer and all-time great Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s previous record. Giannis now has 14,216 points, and there’s a good chance he’ll hit the 35-40,000 point threshold in his career.<\/p>\n
Antetokounmpo broke the record by hitting his first career tying or go-ahead 3-pointer in the final 30 seconds of the fourth quarter or overtime.<\/p>\n
Given that Giannis Antetokounmpo was a skinny kid from Greece who was drafted as a project by the Bucks, the type of career he’s had is nothing short of remarkable. Despite the fact that the two-time MVP, NBA champion, has eclipsed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in this category, he isn’t finished yet.<\/p>\n
