Would you have awarded Giannis Antetokounmpo a triple-double?

The Milwaukee Bucks star’s final rebound in a 117-111 win over the Wizards on Sunday is under scrutiny.

Take a look and you will see why.

Antetokounmpo had 23 points, 13 assists and nine rebounds with about two seconds left in the game.

It appeared he purposefully pad his stats, deliberately missing a shot with no one around him so he could pull down his 10th rebound.

“I was thinking about scoring the ball, but I feel like in those situations it’s best to kind of keep the ball,” Antetokounmpo said. “But yeah, I just try to play the game smart and kind of stole one.”

It was his fourth triple-double of the season.

Jevon Carter added 20 points while shooting 6 of 10 from beyond the arc, and Jrue Holiday scored 19 in Milwaukee’s victory a night after a home loss to Philadelphia snapped a 16-game win streak.

The Bucks made 22 of their 49 attempts beyond the arc, the most allowed by the Wizards this season, while moving 1 1/2 games in front of Boston for first in the Eastern Conference.

Bradley Beal scored 33 points for the Wizards, who remain 10th in the East and in line for the final play-in tournament spot. Kristaps Porzingis added 24 points and 14 rebounds for Washington, which lost for the second time at home in two nights.
