Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jrue Holiday and Khris Middleton were unstoppable in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
Scoring a combined 88 points in the Bucks’ 123-119 victory over the Suns, Milwaukee’s Big 3 became just the fifth trio in NBA Finals history to each score 25 points on 50% shooting in a single game. They are the first to do so since James Worthy (33 points), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (36 points) and Magic Johnson (26 points) in 1985.
