The Milwaukee Bucks recently experienced an upturn in form, improving to a 6-9 record with a two-game winning streak. After leading his team to a 122-106 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, Giannis Antetokounmpo believes they are starting to turn things around for the better.
“It’s lot of games. There’s 67 games left. 67 games left. We are trending towards the right direction, we’re winning at home, right?” It’s not that bad. At the end of the day, we have a lot of season left. A lot of season left,” Antetokounmpo said in the postgame presser.
“People want us to be in this position. People want us to fight for our lives… I think we lost 5 in a row or 6 in a row something like that. We all know that feeling and it was horrible. It was like we last 20 in a row for me, I don’t know how it was for the other guys. So we don’t really want to go back there, I don’t think anybody wants to go back there,” he added.
Giannis Antetokounmpo played a stellar game against the Chicago Bulls, recording 41 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists on 17-for-24 shooting from the field. Co-stars Brook Lopez and Damian Lillard added 21 and 20 points, respectively.
