Milwaukee Bucks star becomes just the third player in NBA history to win MVP and Defensive Player of the Year in the same season, joining Michael Jordan and Hakeem Olajuwon. While Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Bucks suffered a disappointing second-round playoff exit at the hands of the Miami Heat, there was never too much doubt as to whether he would win a second consecutive MVP. The 25-year-old was a beast throughout the regular season as Milwaukee racked up a league-best 56-17 record. The Greek Freak averaged 29.5 points, 13.6 points and 5.6 assists in just 30.4 minutes per game while shooting 55.3% from the field and 30.4% on 3-pointers. Source- CLUTCHPOINTS
