It is the third time in the last eleven games that the hot 28-year-old scored 50 points or more.

On January 3, he set a personal NBA record by scoring 55 points in a game against Washington.

Antetokounmpo has now reached the magical point mark six times in the regular season, but his most famous so far is in the sixth game of the 2021 NBA Finals series when the Greek scored 50 points and the Bucks secured their first NBA title since 1971.

Antetokounmpo is the second player in Milwaukee Bucks history to reach the 50-point mark three times in the same season, previously Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.

- It's flattering to be up there with Kareem.

I never thought I would score 50 points in an NBA game when I was drafted, this is a crazy ride.
