NEW YORK (AFP) – Giannis Antetokounmpo delivered his third triple-double of the season and Khris Middleton scored a game-high 23 points to power the NBA-leading Milwaukee Bucks over the New York Knicks, 123-102, on Saturday.

Greek star Antetokounmpo had 22 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists for the Bucks, who improved their league-best record to 26-4 with an eighth consecutive road victory.

Antetokounmpo made 8-of-10 shots from the floor, 2-of-4 from three-point range, and went 4-of-8 from the free throw line for the Bucks, who were coming off a Thursday triumph over the Western Conference-leading Los Angeles Lakers.

‘’I’m not into stats,’’ Antetokounmpo said. ‘’I’m here to get the job done. Stats are going to be there if you are on the court and doing your best.”

‘’The hard part is making your stats count. I just want to be on the court and help my team win,” he said.
