‘Legendary’: Klay Thompson reacts after seeing what Giannis Antetokounmpo did vs Sacramento Kings

Giannis Antetokounmpo produced a fantastic performance for the Miami Heat in their win over the Sacramento Kings. A lot has been said about the former Milwaukee Bucks star this season, but his individual numbers remain excellent, and he came up with the goods once again on Sunday night. While doing so, Antetokounmpo surpassed an NBA legend on an all-time list. Klay Thompson hails ‘legendary’ Giannis Antetokounmpo after he surpassed Larry Bird Antetokounmpo has been among the best players in the NBA for many years now. The Greek superstar has been in the league since 2013, and he has already achieved a lot in the game over the years. But he is nowhere near done. Against the Sacramento Kings, Antetokounmpo scored 29 points to help the Miami Heat win 114-108. That takes him up to 21,806 points in his NBA career, surpassing the great Larry Bird, who scored 21,791 points over the course of his iconic career. Antetokounmpo’s teammate Klay Thompson watched his pal make history live inside the Golden 1 Center, and he hailed him in his Instagram Story . “Legendary, bro,” he wrote after sharing a graphic of Antetokounmpo’s all-time points tally. “Larry is one of the GOATs. This is awesome!” Surpassing Bird on the all-time list is incredibly impressive on its own, but what makes it even better is the fact that Antetokounmpo is still only 31 years old. The Greek Freak ranks 40th on the all-time points list now, but there is every chance that he could be in the top five by the time he retires. ‘That’s insane’ – Giannis Antetokounmpo responds to ‘bitterness’ after Doc River’s comments about him ‘Biggest problem’: Evan Turner says Giannis Antetokounmpo has caused a real issue for Miami Heat now ‘He’s trying to say’: Skip Bayless says he knows why Doc Rivers has fired shots at Giannis Antetokounmpo
