During Week 13, Antetokounmpo averaged 32.0 points, 12.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game on 66.7 percent shooting from the field. This season, the two-time league MVP averages a league-high-tying 31.5 points, 12.0 rebounds, and 6.0 assists on 60.5 percent shooting from the field.

Antetokounmpo, playing through a right patella tendinitis in the past few weeks, dropped 34 points, 15 rebounds, and six assists on 13-for-17 shooting from the field and 8-for-14 shooting from the free throw line.

As things stand, the eight-time NBA All-Star is third in the latest MVP rankings, only behind Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic and Oklahoma City Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Antetokounmpo last won the MVP award in the 2019-20 campaign
