Giannis Antetokounmpo Milwaukee Bucks 2024-2025 Game Worn Association Edition Jersey | 59 Points | 1,000th Career Block | Double-Double

This home ‘Association Edition’ jersey was worn in the 2nd half and overtime by Giannis Antetokounmpo on November 13, 2024, when the Milwaukee Bucks played the Detroit Pistons. 

Giannis had one of the best games of his career, dropping 59 points while hitting 21 of 34 field goal attempts and sinking 16 of 17 free throws. He also contributed 14 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks, leading a short-handed Bucks squad to a 127-120 victory over the Pistons. This marked his eighth career game with at least 20 made field goals, tying him with Kobe Bryant and Bob McAdoo for the seventh-most in NBA history. In overtime, he outscored the Pistons 11-9 and became the first Bucks player to shoot a perfect 5-for-5 or better in a single OT period since play-by-play tracking began in the 1996-97 season. Additionally, he recorded his 1,000th career block in this game.

Going Deeper | The Greek Freak

Nicknamed the ‘Greek Freak’ because of his home country and freakish athleticism, Giannis Antetokounmpo is arguably the league’s most dominant player. Beginning his professional career with the Milwaukee Bucks after being selected 15th overall in the 2013 NBA Draft, Antetokounmpo quickly emerged as a game-changing player with his extraordinary athleticism and versatility. 

At just 29 years old, Antetokounmpo’s resume is already Hall of Fame worthy. He won back-to-back league MVPs in 2018-2019 and 2019-2020. He was also named Defensive Player of the Year in the latter season. Following the 2020-2021 season, Giannis added an NBA Finals MVP and All-Star Game MVP to his trophy case. His 50-point and 14-rebound performance in the series-clinching Game 6 of the 2021 NBA Finals is one of the greatest individual NBA Finals game performances of all time. 

Antetokounmpo is an 8-time NBA All-Star, a 5-time All-NBA 1st Team member, a 2-time All-NBA 2nd Team member, and has been named to 5 NBA All-Defensive Teams. He is also part of the 75th Anniversary Team, and the youngest player named to the team.

The NBA 75th Anniversary Team was selected by a blue-ribbon panel of players, coaches, general managers, and sportswriters who voted on the 75 Greatest Players in NBA History. Only 11 active players were selected for the team including Giannis Antetokounmpo.

At the time of cataloging, he has career averages of 23.8 points per game, 9.9 rebounds per game, and 4.9 assists per game.
