Giannis Antetokounmpo's Historic 64-Point Game Sparks Controversy and Rivalry

The Indiana Pacers mistakenly took the game ball after the Milwaukee Bucks' victory, which saw Giannis Antetokounmpo break the franchise record for points in a single game with 64. Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle explained that his team took the ball because Pacers rookie Oscar Tshiebwe had scored his first NBA point during the game. A heated exchange ensued between Antetokounmpo and a member of the Pacers staff, and the situation escalated in the hallway. Despite eventually receiving a ball, Giannis expressed doubt that it was the game ball and plans to give it to his mother. The two teams will face off again in the regular season.
