Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo somehow managed to pull off a mind-boggling accomplishment Tuesday night in a 124-86 win over the heat.
The “Greek Freak” got a triple-double in under 25 minutes of game time. He scored 12 points, grabbed 10 rebounds and added 10 assists in the blowout win.

You can watch highlights from the massive win below.
I say this with 100 percent seriousness: I don’t think I could score 12 points, get 10 rebounds or 10 assists in an NBA game if you gave me 500 minutes of game time. I get that he’s an NBA superstar, but it’s almost hard to comprehend pulling off a triple-double at all. (RELATED: Milwaukee Bucks Star Bullies Blake Griffin With Humiliating Dunk)
It’s borderline impossible to do it under 25 minutes. That is just an insane stat line, and it’s the quickest triple-double in nearly four years.

Giannis is absolutely setting the league on fire right now, and I love seeing it. He was unknown before entering the league, and now he’s arguably a top-three player.
I love cheering for an underdog, and there might not be a bigger one than him when you consider how he went from being a nobody to dominating the NBA.
Go, Giannis, go!
