In a recent thrilling showdown,
Milwaukee Bucks witnessed a spectacular end to the game when
Damian Lillard nailed a stunning Game Winner against Sacramento Kings that left everyone in awe. The feat not only impressed fans, but also drew praise from two-time MVP and teammate
Giannis Antetokounmpo, who described the shot as the "hardest" he's ever seen to win an evenly matched game.
Antetokounmpo shared his impressions with reporters after the thrilling encounter, stressing the difficulty of the shot and expressing his amazement at his colleague's skill. "It's unbelievable," Giannis stated. "Not to discredit Khris (Middleton) in any way, shape or form. I've played with this guy for 11 years, 720 games with him, and Lillard's was the hardest shot I've ever seen anyone make to win an even game."
"It was tough," Giannis continued, describing the execution of the shot. "Because not only did he slow down, but he kind of did an in-and-out and took a step away from the defense, jumped and, while he was in the air, he faded away. And he was still able to get it. I don't think he touched the rim. It was all net. At the end of the day, that's what you get paid so much money for."
2021 Champion and Finals MVP drew a comparison to Khris Middleton, his Bucks teammate, underscoring the magnitude of Lillard's feat. Although Giannis praises Middleton, his amazement at Lillard's shot suggests he witnessed a truly exceptional moment in his NBA career.
