The Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Dallas Mavericks to hand them their fourth straight loss. The Bucks are now second in the Eastern Conference with a 14-5 record, riding high. All five starters scored in double-digits and Giannis Antetokounmpo was out there channeling Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki.

The game ended 124-115. Though it clearly wasn’t the outcome the Mavericks wanted as they are now on a four-game losing streak. 

Giannis Antetokounmpo was cold for the picture

Antetokounmpo seemed to take a subtle shot at the Mavs. He posted a picture of himself shooting a one-legged fadeaway in the paint. He took that jumper over two Mavericks defenders, Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith.

Antetokounmpo made sure to make this win memorable by imitating the famous Dirk Nowitzki one-legged fadeaway jumper. And to rub salt in the wounds of the losing team, he posted that picture on his official Twitter account. To top it off, he took a reference from Drake and 21 Savage’s song, ‘Rich Flex‘. The Greek Freak captioned the image, “34, Can you do something for me?!”

Elon Musk Shuts Down Mavericks’ Billionaire Owner Mark Cuban With 3 Words Despite Praise Before Twitter Takeover

One fan tweeted, “Cuban might give you a billion if u come to Dallas.” While another fan commented, “My 2022-2023 MVP.”

Here are some more reactions from Twitter.

 Luka Doncic had a double-double with two more Mavericks players crossing the 20-point threshold. However, it did not seem to be enough to take down Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks.

The Bucks turning heads around the league

Many analysts predicted that the Bucks would have a tough time this season with the absence of Khris Middleton from the starting lineup. But it seems as if the rest of the squad took it upon themselves to help Giannis in the scoring load.

Antetokounmpo had a double-double with 30 points, 11 rebounds, and 4 assists for the game. Grayson Allen too had a great game against the Mavericks. He was a perfect 5-5 from beyond the arc for the first quarter. Talk about a hot start.

Jevon Carter is another player who has really upped his game in these past few matchups. The Bucks are playing without three key players from their rotation. Khris Middleton, Serge Ibaka, and Joe Ingles were all ruled out for the game against the Mavs.

Yet, the Bucks seem to be on a roll. The league might want to fear the deer once these players return to the lineup and are healthy to play.
