With Giannis Antetokounmpo putting in another MVP performance, the Bucks defeated the Boston Celtics 131–125 in overtime.

The big derby was tinted green and despite the absence of four key players, the Celtics showed they were a very good team.

The Greek star was once again the protagonist, posting a triple-double with 36 points, 13 rebounds and 8 assists.

However, Giannis spooked Bucks officials when he fell onto the court, clutching his knee, with less than 2 minutes left in regulation. Fortunately, nothing serious happened, and he returned to court.

For the Reindeer, who scored their 11th win, Jrue Holliday was the top scorer with 40 points. For a Boston without Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, Jason Tatum and Al Horford, White stood out with 27 points.
