Giannis Antetokounmpo pulled off a last-second triple-double Sunday night during the Bucks’ win over the Wizards, but after a closer look, the NBA has rescinded his final rebound.
In the waning moments of Milwaukee’s 117-111 win at Washington, Antetokounmpo was dribbling out the clock when his teammates informed him he was one rebound shy of a triple-double. In order to notch his 10th board, Giannis tossed the ball off the backboard to himself.
Although that initially was counted as his 10th rebound of the game, ESPN’s Zach Lowe indicates the league is reversing that decision and rescinding the rebound, eliminating Antetokounmpo’s triple-double.
