Giannis Antetokounmpo's second career playoff triple-double leads Milwaukee Bucks to Game 1 win over Boston Celtics

BOSTON -- Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo made two unsuccessful attempts to drive past Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams on a possession midway through the fourth quarter on Sunday, before Antetokounmpo had to get creative.

He faked a shot to his left and then turned his body right, gathering his feet to throw the ball off the backboard to himself and slam home a two-handed dunk. His alley-oop to himself left the Boston crowd silenced and put an exclamation point on a dominant performance by Milwaukee in a 101-89 victory in Sunday's Eastern Conference semifinal series opener.
