Giannis Antetokounmpo dropped a career-high and franchise record 64 points on the Pacers Wednesday, but the night ended with the Bucks star having some serious difficulty getting the game ball as a keepsake.
The broadcast caught video of Antetokounmpo seeming to walk off the court, but he instead sprinted toward the Pacers locker room. Security was not able to catch him before he advanced down the tunnel. Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes reported that Antetokounmpo had trouble getting the game ball from the Pacers, but he still wasn’t able to retrieve the ball by going to the locker room.
Antetokounmpo came back onto the court without the game ball, then went up to Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton and other members of the team and began shouting. It’s unclear what exactly the Bucks star was saying, but his frustration was noticeable.
