The Milwaukee Bucks put the Dallas Mavericks away on Sunday night, defeating Luka Doncic and his team 124-115.
Obviously, Giannis Antetokounmpo was a huge part of the team’s win, scoring 30 points and 11 rebounds.
But he wasn’t the only star on the team putting up big numbers.
In fact, an unlikely hero swooped in and was doing unbelievable work during the first half of the game.

Grayson Allen was literally perfect during the first half of the game on Sunday.
He scored 22 points in the first 24 minutes and was 7-of-7 from the three-point line.
He also threw two steals into the mix just to make his night even better.
Allen’s performance was a reminder that the Bucks have more than simply Antetokounmpo, even though he is far and away the team’s best player.
Will Allen have more games like this in the future?
Allen Assisting
Not a lot of people talk about Allen but he’s a sneaky and impressive young player.
The 27-year-old guard is averaging 11.2 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 2.6 assists a game, which is a step up from his career averages of 9.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.6 assists.
He is doing particularly well from the three-point line this season, scoring 45% from beyond the arc.
Last season, he sank 40% of his threes so he has obviously improved.
This is great news for the Bucks because they want the entire roster to shine in the months ahead.
Antetokounmpo is playing hard and has his sights set on another MVP trophy but he also wants to win the Finals.
And winning the Finals simply will not be possible unless the entire squad is going hard, as Allen did on Sunday night.
