Giannis Antetokounmpo is an incredible athlete, and his amazing dunk over Boston Celtics center Aron Baynes in Friday night’s Game 3 will be shown on highlight reels for years to come.
The Milwaukee Bucks forward drove to the basket in the third quarter, took off a ways from the net and posterized Baynes with a vicious slam dunk.
Oooops he did it again… #FearTheDeer pic.twitter.com/S0NGKjAwey

Wow.
There’s not much else to say after that jam.
Baynes does deserve a little credit for attempting to play defense. Most players would just get out of the way out of fear of being posterized and seen on SportsCenter’s “Top 10” plays segment.
The Celtics entered Friday with a 2-0 lead in their first-round NBA playoff series against the Bucks.
