Giannis Antetokounmpo finished the last night of 2024 with 30 points and 12 rebounds as the Milwaukee Bucks rallied from a 19-point deficit and beat the Indiana Pacers 120-112.
Antetokounmpo who missed the previous three games with a non-COVID illness, turned the tide in the second half after the Bucks fell behind 83-64 in the third quarter.
He made 11 of 20 shots from the field and 8 of 13 from the line in total while adding five assists.
That marks his 25th consecutive game with 20+pts on 50% FG, tying Shaquille O’Neal and Zion Williamson for the longest streak since 1976-77.
Brook Lopez added 16 points and Bobby Portis Jr. had 14 points and 15 rebounds for the Bucks, who outscored the Pacers 67-48 after halftime.
