Nothing new here. It was once again Giannis Antetokounmpo's night as he exploded for a monster double-double with 29 points and 12 rebounds against the Pacers and helped the Bucks past the Pacers.

Giannis, who was coming off a strong game against the Suns where he scored 21 points and had 13 rebounds, could not be stopped and went on to register his fourth straight double-double in the process.

With the Bucks up big, the 'Greek Freak' had a dunk to elevate the Bucks to 96-74 with 8:21 left in the fourth quarter. However, the Pacers fought back with Giannis on the bench and he had to return.

Antetokounmpo led the Bucks' 8-2 run and closed out the game. Giannis is averaging a double-double over the season with 24.2 points, 12.6 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game.
