The Milwaukee Bucks suffered a tough loss to the Boston Celtics on Sunday, but it wasn’t just the defeat that grabbed attention. Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo was central to two major controversies during the game. Apart from his nasty prank on Jaylen Brown, the Bucks star was responsible for Jayson Tatum’s injury during the game.
As Tatum attempted a corner three-pointer in the third quarter, Giannis closed out on him, causing Tatum to land awkwardly. Tatum appeared to injure his ankle and was seen limping while sitting on the bench. Although Tatum quickly returned to the game, fans couldn’t forget the scare.
Some social media users even questioned whether Giannis’ actions were intentional. A video posted by one X user suggested that the incident may not have been accidental, with fans drawing comparisons to a similar play involving Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving. Many expressed frustration, feeling that Giannis had deliberately contacted his opponents.
Giannis back at it again. If you can’t beat them, injure them.

Despite the drama, Giannis performed excellently, finishing with a game-high 43 points. However, the night was marred by the controversies surrounding his on-court actions, making it a game that will likely be remembered for all the wrong reasons, especially after the Bucks’ loss.
Jayson Tatum Shares Frustration For Missed Call on Giannis Antetokounmpo
Jayson Tatum couldn’t shake off his frustration after a missed call during the Boston Celtics’ game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Following an incident where Giannis Antetokounmpo’s actions led to Tatum’s injury, Tatum took to social media to express his anger.
“Smfh some calls you just not supposed to miss,” Tatum wrote on X.

Despite the injury scare, Tatum played a strong game, finishing with 31 points, six assists, and 12 rebounds in 40 minutes. Giannis Antetokounmpo, on the other hand, was the game’s top scorer with 43 points, but his performance wasn’t enough to prevent a tough loss for the Bucks that dropped them to 2-8 on the season.

Kelce made an appearance on ESPN’s ‘College GameDay’ ahead of the fixture, but it wasn’t a smooth Saturday as he smashed a fan’s phone for asking how he feels about his brother Travis being “f***ot” for dating Taylor Swift, because it’s apparently gay to date women now…
Kelce would grab said fan’s phone, as he was recording him at the time, before smashing it and then asking him, “Who’s the faggot now?”
