Giannis Antetokounmpo's Viral Tweet After The Bucks Beat The 76ers

Giannis Antetokounmpo sent out a tweet after the Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Philadelphia 76ers.

On Sunday night, the Milwaukee Bucks defeated Joel Embiid and the Philadelphia 76ers (at home in Wisconsin) 117-104. 

Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo led the way with 33 points, 14 rebounds, six assists, one steal and three blocks in 32 minutes of playing time (Embiid put up 28 points, nine rebounds and five assists).   

He is in the middle of another fantastic season and has incredible averages of 31.1 points, 11.8 rebounds and 5.6 assists per contest in 62 games. 

Following the big victory, the NBA Champion forward sent out a tweet with a photo that is going viral.

His post had over 26,000 likes and 1.3 million impressions in less than 24 hours. 

Antetokounmpo captioned his photo: "I love the doubt.."

With the victory, the Bucks improved to an NBA-best 56-22 record in 78 games, which has them as the first seed in the Eastern Conference (2.0 games ahead of the Boston Celtics). 

They are 7-3 in their last ten games and an outstanding 31-8 in the 39 games they have hosted on their home floor in Wisconsin. 

In 2021, Antetokounmpo led the Bucks to the NBA Championship over the Phoenix Suns, and last season they lost in the second round to the Celtics. 

There is no question they have an excellent chance to return to the NBA Finals this season. 

The Bucks will play their next game on Tuesday evening when they visit the Washington Wizards in Washington, D.C. 

They are 25-14 in the 39 games they have played on the road.
