Antetokounmpo is still evolving!

Basketball

Bucks media BucksRealm released a set of eye-catching data: Giannis Antetokounmpo (Antetokounmpo) made a significant jump in mid-range shooting - from 45% of the NBA last season to 61% of the five games of this men's basketball European Cup, with amazing efficiency.

This set of data has also sparked widespread discussion among fans. After all, in the past, middle distance was not Antetokounmpo's main scoring method. Most of the time, he relied on his strong physical talent to hit the basket. But now, his stability at medium and long distances has indeed improved to the naked eye.

It is worth mentioning that even in the NBA last season, Antetokounmpo ranked fifth in the league in terms of mid-range hits (283 goals), only behind:

DeRozan (640 goals)

Alexander (348 goals)

Booker (325 goals)

Durant (286 goals)

In other words, his mid-range shots and hits are even close to Durant's level.

In this European Cup, Antetokounmpo played for the Greek team, averaging only 29 minutes per game, scoring comprehensive data of 29.8 points, 9 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 steals, and led the team to successfully enter the semi-finals. Not only is he still unsolvable at the basket, but his mid-range jump shot has become increasingly becoming a weapon that makes the opponent unable to defend.

BucksRealm also wrote: "The evolution of No. 34 is still continuing." Indeed, if Antetokounmpo can bring this mid-range feel back to the NBA in the new season, it will undoubtedly make the Bucks' offense more difficult to limit.
