Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo can do a bit of everything. Last year, head coach Jason Kidd played him at point guard and in the post. The former isn't happening much anymore, but he's made some strides with the latter and improved his 3-point shooting at the same time. Look at what he did in a post-up situation on Thursday against the Cleveland Cavaliers:
That footwork in the paint.. @G_ante34 with 12 in the first Q on TNT! #MILatCLE #NBARapidReplay https://t.co/0pJSPtgsuB

That's some pretty advanced footwork, and very few people would be able to dunk it after a step-through like that. Antetokounmpo, though, has a rare combination of athleticism and length that allows him to finish in traffic where others can't.
In the first quarter against the Cavaliers, Antetokounmpo had 12 points, on 5-for-6 shooting, plus two rebounds and an assist. This could be a big night for the 20-year-old phenom.
