Milwaukee Bucks guard-forward-superhero Giannis Antetokounmpo who is still growing while playing games against adults, has the longest stride in the league, and can get owners (Mark Cuban and the Mavericks) to lament passing on him in the draft. It’s because he can do things like this… Giannis Antetokounmpo posterizes Chris Bosh!
With around 2:50 to go in the third quarter of Friday’s home game vs. the Miami heat, Jabari Parker found Giannis near the basket in transition with a chance to dunk. Chris Bosh met him in mid-air near the block, but Antetokounmpo extended his incredibly long right arm to throw it down over the All-Star, plus the foul.
Giannis Antetokounmpo posterizes Chris Bosh:
Even if ultra-athletic forward dunk on big men with some regularity, Antetokounmpo’s entry is pretty special. His wingspan is so long that this isn’t really a normal dunk — there’s a casual quality about the finish due to his reach. Of course, the body contact is anything but easy.
Antetokounmpo finished with 14 points (3-of-8 FG, 8-of-11 FT), seven boards, and two blocks as the Bucks took the game 109-85. The East’s surprise team shot 56.5 percent from the field and held the Heat to 14 points in the fourth quarter, with only Bosh and Dwyane Wade scoring in double figures on the night.
