Giannis Antetokounmpo, Milwaukee Bucks 

Greek Freak is not human. The things we see him do on a nightly bases like this effortless glide in the lane dunking over Sabonis’ poor soul is unreal.

24-9-6 are without a doubt NBA All-Star numbers. Playing in Milwaukee, however, Giannis doesn’t get a lot of primetime ESPN or TNT games.]

Which is the biggest reason why he might not get the nod for this year’s All-Star game. However, it could be close. And a big part of that is because of the nightly highlight reels that he supplies us with.

Unless you have NBA League Pass and are able to watch him night in and night out, people may not have a real understanding of how gifted he is really is and how deserving he is of his first All-Star bid.
