Elbow from Giannis Antetokounmpo ‘unlocked’ Jaylen Brown, Joe Mazzulla says

Somehow, Giannis Antetokounmpo keeps finding ways to have his elbow connect with Jaylen Brown’s upper body.

The last time the Bucks and Celtics met in Milwaukee, Antetokounmpo was whistled for an offensive foul after elbowing Brown.

As they walked back up the floor, Antetokounmpo pretended to offer Brown a handshake and pulled it back before Brown could reach. Brown called Antetokounmpo a “child” for his antics after the game.

On Friday night, Brown was whistled for a technical foul after Antetokounmpo hit him in the chest with an elbow early in the third quarter.
