The Great Point Guard Experiment: How Giannis Antetounkoumpo and the Milwaukee Bucks are revolutionizing the NBA

How do you define something you've never quite seen before?

Since he first hit the NBA radar, the league has been trying to figure out how to indentify Giannis Antetounkoumpo. With his production finally catching up to the hype, the Greek Freak is finding himself taking the biggest step in his career.

As he eurosteps past conventional labels, he is becoming a pioneering player as the league's first seven-foot full time point guard.

Giannis has attracted endless adoration for his transition game, rifling cross-court overhand passes and routinely weaving through quadruple-teams on coast-to-coast drives. While the NBA Twitterverse has anointed him Magic Giannson for his fast break marvels, moving to the point requires him to master the intricate plays that keep the rest of the team engaged and flowing.
