THE John Antetokounmpo he made history not only for the Bucks but also for the entire NBA with them 64 points scored early in the win over the Pacers.
Greek Freak now owns the 26th all-time NBA scoring record catching him in this particular position Michael Jordanwho had scored 64 points on January 16, 1993. However, Air also has the 14th all-time scoring streak with 69 points since 3/28/1990.
However, it is noted that a teammate of Giannis has a greater record. THE Damian Lillard on 2/26/2023 he scored 71 points (in a Blazers game against the Rockets), which is also the seventh best performance in history. He scored as many points last season Donovan Mitchell of the Cavaliers, on 2/1/2023, against the Bulls. Of the active players, more points than Greek Freak has also Devin Bookerwith 70 on 3/24/2017 with the Suns against the Celtics.
The unapproachable absolute record is held by Wilt Chamberlain, who had 100 points on 3/2/1962 with the Philadelphia Warriors against the Knicks, but in a game with several… question marks. The second place is held by Kobe Bryantwho on 1/22/2006 had 81 points with the Lakers against the Raptors.
