The Milwaukee Bucks headed into tonight’s group stage game against the Miami Heat undefeated in the in-season tournament. The Heat-Bucks game saw two Hall of Famers announcing the game from courtside. Four-time Champion Shaquille O’Neal and Pacers legend Reggie Miller called the game as Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard fought to keep their winning streak alive.

The two legends shared a hilarious moment during the game. Despite being familiar with Giannis’ shooting struggles at the free throw line, Shaq won bragging rights over Reggie by betting on the 2-time MVP.

Giannis Antetokounmpo proves Shaquille O’Neal right

With his team trailing by 2 points in the third quarter, Giannis Antetokounmpo headed to the line to shoot two free throws. He had made 3 of his 6 attempts prior to that play. But Shaquille O’Neal was confident about Giannis sinking both free throws this time. He bet on the 2-time MVP as Reggie Miller claimed there was no chance Giannis would make both shots. To Reggie’s surprise, Giannis sank both free throws, giving bragging rights to Shaq. The Lakers legend hilariously said, “Shaqtradamus is always right… I know the game, Reggie.” The Pacers legend couldn’t help but laugh at Shaq’s hilarious response.

Shooting is the only weakness in The Greek Freak’s game. Giannis is a career 70.6 percent shooter from the free-throw line, and opponents constantly exploit his weakness by sending him to the line in crucial games. Despite his shooting deficiency, Giannis responds brilliantly in clutch situations. Who can forget his iconic game 6 performance of the 2021 NBA finals? Giannis put up a monstrous 50 points, and what shocked everyone the most was that he made 17 of his 19 free throw attempts in the biggest game of his career. That led to the 2-time MVP winning his first NBA Championship. Maybe Shaq counted on Giannis’ clutch gene to kick in tonight as well.
