Milwaukee Bucks’ top 5 plays of the week: Alley-oops galore!
2. Giannis Antetokounmpo between the legs.
Anytime Giannis Antetokounmpo does something, all of Bucks’ nation thinks it’s the best thing that’s ever been done. And we’re mostly right.
Such was the case against the Celtics when Antetokounmpo decided to throw a bounce pass between his legs to a trailing Bledsoe for a layup:

Antetokounmpo started the fast break by using his crazy wingspan and deflecting a pass right to himself. He then darted down the middle of the floor while taking on two Celtics’ defenders at one time. He probably easily could’ve used his long strides to fight through the defense and get a left-handed layup, but the Greek Freak had other plans this time around, as he bounced a pass right to the trailing Bledsoe who finished with a contested layup.
It’s not every day where you see a seven-footer bringing the ball up the floor on a fastbreak and dropping a dime between his legs.
