After several exciting games, the Milwaukee Bucks overcame a 0-2 deficit and defeated the Phoenix Suns to capture the 2020-21 NBA Championship.
Giannis Antetokounmpo took home the 2021 NBA Finals MVP honors after a historic Game 6 performance, scoring 50 points to go along with 14 rebounds and five blocks. Antetokounmpo shot an efficient 16-of-25 from the field but shined at the free-throw line as he knocked down 17 of his 19 attempts.
The Greek Freak set several records in his first Finals appearance, including joining Shaquille O’Neal in an exclusive statistical group. Like O’Neal, Antetokounmpo dominated the painted area despite the presence of a fellow big man in Deandre Ayton.
