Giannis Antetokounmpo admitted he felt exhausted after the loss to the Boston Celtics in the must-win Game 7.
The “Greek Freak” referred to the physicality of the series and how it affected him, noting that everything feels ‘heavy’.
“Legs heavy. Body heavy. Mind heavy. Everything was heavy,” Giannis Antetokounmpo told media afterwards, via Ben Golliver of the Washington Post.
The superstar of the Milwaukee Bucks flirted with the triple-double, with 25 points (10/26 shooting), 20 rebounds and 9 assists.
The two-time NBA MVP averaged 33.9 points, 14.7 boards and 7.1 assists, which led all players in the series.
"Hopefully like this moment, instead of thinking that we lost something we can gain and learn in order for us to put ourselves in position to win another championship." -Giannis Antetokounmpo pic.twitter.com/QEwFmEST7L — Scott Grodsky (@ScottGrodsky) May 15, 2022
