Victor Wembanyama, Giannis Antetokounmpo trade dunks in highlight reel sequence

If you blinked, you missed two incredible dunks in San Antonio. Spurs rookie Victor Wembanyama went toe to toe with the Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo on Thursday night, with the pair treating fans to a real life game of “NBA Jam” in Milwaukee’s 125 121 win. Antetokounmpo kicked things off early in the second quarter when he drove toward the basket, spun around the Spurs’ defense and put down a right handed jam for two of his game high 44 points.

“Right back, right?” Reggie Miller said on the TNT broadcast to an almost stunned play by play man Kevin Harlan. “Didn’t I say there was going to be plays where you and I were going to be shaking our head[s] — back to back plays.” “[Wembanyama] pulled the rabbit out of his head right there,” Harlan responded.

Not long after, both traded blocks on both ends of the floor as the two continued to entertain the Frost Bank Center crowd. The pair put up some video game numbers, with Antetokounmpo adding 14 rebounds, seven assists and two blocks to his totals on the night. It marked the eighth straight game the Greek Freak led Milwaukee in scoring, and sixth in a row he paced the team in rebounds.
