The Milwaukee Bucks are on an absolute roll as of late, winning nine of their last 10 games of the season. With a 36-17 record, the Bucks are in second place in the Eastern Conference, just behind the Boston Celtics. For this, a lot of the credit goes to their superstar forward, Giannis Antetokounmpo. The ‘Greek Freak’ has been doing it all on the offensive and defensive end of the floor. If that weren’t enough to make fans smile, what Antetokounmpo did after their win against the Miami Heat recently will surely melt one’s heart. 

The Bucks took down the Heat 123-115. As Antetokounmpo was heading to the locker room, he came across a young fan in the tunnel. The kid challenged Antetokounmpo to a game of rock-paper-scissors.
