Giannis Antetokounmpo did not stand aside from the explosive scoring storm in the NBA, setting a new personal record with a 55-point game against the Washington Wizards.

In the midst of an explosive scoring storm in the NBA in the past few days, Giannis Antetokounmpo did not stay out of the fun to have a memorable match for himself.

The Milwaukee Bucks superstar set a new personal record, scoring 55 points and making a big contribution to a 123-113 victory over the Washington Wizards.

This is the fourth 50-point game in the past four days in the NBA, interspersed with a series of explosive scoring games across the league.

The Milwaukee Bucks led the Wizards for most of the game, starting with a 15-0 streak at the end of the first half and the beginning of the second.

The advantage of over 10 points was maintained until the 4th half. Despite their best efforts, the Washington players could not create a long series of points because the opponent played too closely.

By the time the Bucks showed signs of loosening their grip towards the end of the game, it was Giannis' turn to speak. "Demigod" scored 12 of the last 14 points that Milwaukee had at the end of the fourth half, ending the match with a 10-point victory (final score 123-113).

This is the second win in the last 3 appearances of Giannis Antetokounmpo and teammates. This result helps the Milwaukee Bucks maintain 3rd place in the Eastern standings under pressure from the Cleveland Cavaliers.

With individual Giannis Antetokounmpo, he has 55 points with 10 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals. All of the "demigod" scores came from 2 points or free throws, reaching 20-33 FG and 15-16 FT.

This was the third game in a row that Giannis scored above 40 points. He is averaging 47.6 points and 17.3 rebounds in his past three appearances. History has just recorded two people who have achieved this terrible index in the past half century, Bob McAdoo and Moses Malone.

Giannis Antetokounmpo's 55-point performance marked his 14th 50-point game since the start of the season, and his fourth 50-point game in four days.

Before "demigod", Donovan Mitchell and Klay Thompson both scored over 50 points yesterday (January 3). Mitchell alone exploded and scored 71 points. Further on Sunday, January 1, Luka Doncic scored 51 point.

In the last season (2021-22), the entire NBA had a total of 19 games with 50 points. This year's Regular Season 2022-23 has not yet gone halfway, so the above 19-match milestone can be completely conquered.
