Giannis Antetokounmpo went nuts on Wednesday night after his 64-point game against the Indiana Pacers over what transpired with the ball used in the game.
Antetokounmpo’s 64-point outburst was the most points scored in a single game by a Bucks player. Antetokounmpo wanted the ball from the game to commemorate his performance. The Pacers wanted to keep the ball and give it to rookie Oscar Tshiebwe. Giannis was seen going nuts after the game in pursuit of the ball (video here).
Late on Wednesday evening, the Legendz on X account posted a video that provided a full picture of what happened. Take a look:

Antetokounmpo wasn’t convinced after the game that the ball he ultimately was given was the one used from the game. However, Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton implied that Giannis indeed had received the correct ball.
Maybe the solution here is Giannis just needs to go out and score 70 points — during a home game — and assure himself an even more meaningful ball.
How hard is that?
