Aaron Gordon is one of the league’s most breathtaking athletes, and he’s quickly developing a reputation for executing contest-worthy dunks in the middle of a game. But Giannis Antetokounmpo is no slouch himself in terms of being an absolute physical specimen.
So it was a clash of the aerial titans on Sunday night in the third quarter of the Bucks-Magic game when Gordon tried to attack the rim against the Greek Freak and got denied – not once, but twice – on the same possession. Those were two of Antetokounmpo’s three blocks for the game so far, to go along with 16 points, nine rebounds, and five assists.
