MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Bucks are nearly halfway through their 2018-2019 season, and to this point Giannis Antetokounmpo has proven to be the best player in the NBA's Eastern Conference.
For a second straight month, the Greek Freak has claimed Eastern Conference Player of The Month after averaging a double-double with 25.6 points per game, 12.5 rebounds and 6.2 assists. Despite all of his astounding statistics, the only thing that matters is that the Bucks still hold the best record in the NBA at 26-10. The team finished December with a 10-4 record.
