WATCH: Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo caught playing with dinosaurs mid-game
Giannis and family
As dominant as Giannis Antetokounmpo is in this league right now, he surely is one of the funniest guys in the NBA too. His series of dad jokes to the game media and his social media posts have made people laugh. And, now Giannis is playing with dinosaurs during the game.
Giannis and the Milwaukee Bucks were facing Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday. The game was already hyped because finally two of the top MVPs were facing each other for the first time this season. However, as intense as the game the fans thought it was, Giannis was busy doing something funny on the table as if he was bored.
The All-Star has been performing exactly like his MVP season. Given the circumstances that Milwaukee Bucks are in, it is imperative that Giannis had to elevate his game to give the Bucks a chance to make it to the playoffs. Antetokounmpo has constantly been the top MVP candidate this year for these two months.
The Milwaukee Bucks superstar was caught on camera playing with the dinosaurs; as many would think it might be a knock on the Toronto Raptors, but it is not. Giannis was seen playing with a dinosaur toy during Bucks’ game against the Dallas Mavericks.
Being a father changes people and that’s exactly the case with Greek Freak. Since being a father Giannis has been having fun on and off the court; as a father now, he has been happy. As far as the question of which toy it was; Liam’s or Maverick’s (his two sons) nothing about that can be said. However, the Greek Freak did seem to have more interest in the toy on the scorers’ table than the game itself.

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks defeat Dallas Mavericks
Even if Antetokounmpo was playing with the dinosaur, the Bucks and Giannis have one of the best records in the NBA. Despite Khris Middleton being out of the rotation right now, Giannis has taken it upon himself to keep them among the contenders.
Against the Mavericks, Giannis Antetokounmpo played for 30 minutes and finished the game with 30 points, along with 11 rebounds and a steal to seal the deal for the Bucks. Giannis shot 11 of 19 from the field and made 8 of his 10 free throws in the game. As big as Giannis is and with his ability to dominate the paint area, it is almost impossible to stop him. So Dallas failed to do so, and they paid the price for it.
Luka Doncic and Spencer Dinwiddie scored 27 and 22 respectively for the Mavs. Despite dropping 12 dimes in the game, Doncic was -10 and Spencer Dinwiddie was -16 in the game. For many NBA fans, this game was the decisive game in the race for the KIA MVP 2022-23 season. Dallas lost the game 115-124 to Giannis and the Bucks who have now sent out a firm statement.
