NBA: Giannis Antetokounmpo rings the bell to give the Milwaukee Bucks a dramatic 117-115 victory over the Indiana Pacers

Giannis Antetokounmpo rang the bell to give the Milwaukee Bucks a dramatic 117-115 victory over the Indiana Pacers in the NBA.

With the scores tied heading into the final seconds of the Central Division game, the 30-year-old pivoted to avoid a double block before floating in a jumper.

It was the fifth occasion in which the Greek-Nigerian made a winning shot in the last five seconds of the game, and the second siren of his career.

“You can live if you miss. You can’t live if you don’t shoot,” said Antetokounmpo, who scored a game-high 33 points.

“People don’t remember the time you waste, they remember all the times you do, so I’m happy about that.”

Meanwhile, Jusuf Nurkic scored with 0.6 seconds left in the game to give the Utah Jazz a late win as they earned a 105-103 victory over the Boston Celtics in the Northwest Division.
