LA didn't have LeBron James, Austin Reaves, Jarred Vanderbilt, or Gabe Vincent, still, it was a good game that went to the Bucks. In the post-game interview, Giannis didn't hesitate to speak about James.

Giannis on what he thinks of LeBron: “I’ve said it many times I’m a very very big fan of LeBron, I remember when I came into the league my first year was his 11th season, basically grew up watching him. When I came in and understood the way he operates this guy was like a genius, he knows how to play the game of basketball and for 21 years he’s been extremely consistent, he’s always available for his team. It’s INCREDIBLE man it’s totally incredible.”
