Solving the Giannis Problem

The Toronto Raptors fell 122-116 to the Milwaukee Bucks in their home opener, struggling to contain Giannis Antetokounmpo, the former NBA MVP.

Coming off a 138-point win over the Atlanta Hawks, the Raptors hoped to bring momentum to their home game, but Giannis proved to be a different challenge. His size, power, and agility made it difficult for the Raptors to defend him in the post, and he frequently drew fouls, making multiple trips to the line in the first quarter alone.

The Raptors needed to capitalize on the minutes Giannis was not on the court, but ultimately fell short. Author's summary: Raptors struggle to contain Giannis Antetokounmpo.
