Coach Doc Rivers has paired the two together often. Green is nailing more than half of his long balls. Antetokounmpo is shooting 80 percent at the rim and is taking more shots at the basket than ever. When they share the floor, Milwaukee averages an unstoppable 128 points per 100 possessions, according to Cleaning the Glass. For context, that’s more efficient than a Stephen Curry 3-pointer.

I wish Doc would run more plays for him. All they do is picks and fade with Giannis but besides that they just rely on dribble penetration and the help defender never helps off Green because he is the best shooter
AJ Cream should shoot double digit 3s every game.
AJ is the perfect type of role player you need to surround Giannis with.
I was astonished by his shooting in his first summer league with the bucks. Seemed a bit streaky, but I saw potential. Glad to see it paid off
I wish AJ played a little more selfish sometimes. There’s definitely been times where a lightly contested AJ 3 pointer is passed up for a worse shot, I think he’s too good a shooter to be shooting as little as he has in an offense where we’re trying to get the shots up
All I read was that AJ Green is better than Steph.
