Giannis Antetokounmpo scores a career-high 41 points in Bucks' loss

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Giannis Antetokounmpo scored a career-high 41 points in Friday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, adding 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks and 1 3-pointer in 42 minutes.

What It Means:

Antetokounmpo also went to the line 21 times on Friday in an impressive performance. The injury to Jabari Parker is going to put even more weight on the Greek Freak's shoulders, especially with Khris Middleton still making his way back from a serious injury. Antetokounmpo's usage rate also spiked to 37.5 percent on Friday night, which could take his fantasy value to even bigger heights if it continues.

Antetokounmpo is averaging 23.5 points, 8.7 rebounds, 5.4 assists, 1.7 steals and 2.0 blocks over 35.3 minutes per game. He owns a career-best .551 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of 9.2 ranks 10th-best in the league.
