Milwaukee Bucks wins 2021 NBA Finals

The NBA Finals of this season saw the Milwaukee Bucks and the Phoenix Suns faced each other for the very first time. The Suns are aiming for their first championship title while the Bucks are gunning for their second title. These two battleground teams really made headlines.

The first two games saw the Suns gain the upper hand but the third game saw the Bucks on the verge of a comeback and their newfound surge, courtesy of Giannis Antetokounmpo's upset, saw the team clawing themselves into the lead until they've hit the final blow to the Suns in Game 6.

With the combined efforts of Giannis's, as well as Brook Lopez's third-quarter slam, the Khris-Jrue tandem, and the others, the Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Phoenix Suns at the score of 105-98, enough to clinch their first NBA title in five decades.

Giannis, who was named MVP, became the first NBA player in history with over 40 points, over 10 rebounds, and over 5 blocks in the finals game. His record of 35.2 PPG, 13.2 RPG, and 5.0 APG made him the second in history to average such a feat, joining alongside LeBron James.

Congratulations to the Milwaukee Bucks for being the 2020-2021 NBA Champions!
