Triggered by Giannis Antetokounmpo, Al Horford scores playoff career-high 30 points to rescue Boston Celtics in Game 4

MILWAUKEE -- Al Horford knew he'd get his revenge.

After Giannis Antetokounmpo dunked on him early in the third quarter Monday night, the Milwaukee Bucks superstar received a technical foul for saying something in Horford's direction. As Horford walked back up the court, he just nodded his head and said "OK" as he looked in Antetokounmpo's direction.

"I didn't make out what he said, but the way he looked at me didn't sit well with me," Horford said. "That got me going."

The next quarter, Horford returned the favor. He caught the ball on the perimeter and hit Antetokounmpo with a pump fake.
