Two-time reigning NBA most valuable player Giannis Antetokounmpo delivered a triple-double of 21 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists to fuel the Bucks’ 130-110 rout of the Indiana Pacers.
Antetokounmpo connected on seven of eight shots from the field and seven of eight from the free throw line, and the Bucks led from wire-to-wire, taking a 106-72 advantage into the final period — when Antetokounmpo sat out along with the rest of Milwaukee’s starters.

Domantas Sabonis led the Pacers with a career-high 33 points and 12 rebounds, but Indiana, coming off a 134-116 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday, couldn’t slow a Bucks team that made 21 three-pointers.
