Giannis Antetokounmpo turned in another masterful performance for the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night as he led his team to a 131-124 victory over the Miami Heat. The former back-to-back MVP led the charge with a game-high 33 points on 11-of-16 shooting, to go along with 10 rebounds, five assists, three steals, and a block in 40 minutes of play.
After the win, the Bucks talisman celebrated in the most Giannis Antetokounmpo way possible — with another one of his infamous dad jokes.
Giannis Commemorates Milwaukee Bucks’ Victory Over Heat
Giannis usually comes out with a motivational message on Twitter after each game, regardless if Milwaukee wins or loses. It was a little bit different on Tuesday night, though, with the seven-time All-Star opting to gift his followers with yet another one of his dad jokes:

That’s actually quite respectable. It’s far from a ROFL moment, but I’m sure that this jab should produce a chuckle or two. Right? Or maybe at least a half smile or a smirk?
I guess you’d be able to appreciate the joke more once we put it into context. Antetokounmpo busted out the duck jab in theme with the Nike Zoom Freak 5 he was wearing in the game. Giannis dawned yet another iteration of the Oregon Ducks colorway of his new pair of kicks, which explains the fowl reference.
Makes a bit more sense now, right?
