Adetokunbo shines again! 46 points to beat Chicago, Doncic’s triple-double not enough to beat Boston

Jannis Adetokunbo excelled shooting again, this time contributing 46 points to the Bucks’ victory over the Bulls. Luka Doncic had a triple-double for the Celtics, but it wasn’t enough for the Mavericks to win.

Adetokunbo proved once again that he is one of the best scorers of the season

In the Chicago Bulls vs. Milwaukee Bucks (97:113) Jannis Adetokunbo was the biggest contributor to the Bucks’ victory. It was the eighth time this season that he broke the 40-point mark. This time he scored 46 points for the Bulls.

In addition, he was also very valid under the basket, where he recorded 16 rebounds and dished out 6 assists to his teammates. Once again, he had very good shooting accuracy from the field. He made 22 shot attempts at the Chicago basket and 16 of them were successful.

Milwaukee controlled the game from the very beginning, except for the third quarter. However, the Bulls won it by only 4 points and it had no effect on the visiting team’s lead. Adetokunbo confirmed his position as the third best scorer of the current season with another great performance.

He is currently at 30.8 points per game. However, he is the best in the entire NBA in points scored. He has already put 1,819 points in the opponents’ baskets this season, which is 11 more than the second best scorer this season, Shai Gilgeous – Alexander. He can therefore be expected to break the 2,000-point mark for the third time in his career this season.

Luka Doncic wasn’t enough for Boston alone

In the Boston Celtics vs Dallas Mavericks game (138:110) Luka Doncic was again very visible on the side of the visiting team. He scored his 12th triple-double this season. He is therefore the third best in this statistic. This time he put 37 points in the Celtics basket, he also had 12 rebounds and 11 assists.

The Celtics clearly went for another winning notch led by Jayson Tatum with 32 points. They notched their 47th win in the current season. They have fallen in just 12 duels so far and are clearly the best unit this season.

Doncic was left all alone. The team’s second star Kyrie Irving was held to just 19 points, while Boston’s coordinated offense had seven double-digit scorers and controlled the game throughout.
