NEW YORK -- Giannis Antetokounmpo became the Milwaukee Bucks' all-time leading scorer on Thursday night by delivering the type of unbelievable performance that has defined his star-studded career.
Antetokounmpo broke Hall of Famer Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's franchise mark of 14,211 points, scoring 44 points on Thursday to move his total to 14,216. As part of his monster night, he hit a game-tying 3-pointer with 18 seconds left in regulation that helped force overtime and then drained two big free throws with three seconds left in the extra frame to seal a 120-119 win over the Brooklyn Nets.
