To give you an idea, the star was responsible for scoring a triple-double, making 24 points, catching 13 rebounds and giving 12 assists. These numbers show why the Bucks are the second-best regular-season team in the Eastern Conference, while still being the only team to eliminate rivals, the Brooklyn Netsin the first round of the playoffs.
