Giannis Antetokounmpo Loses The Ball To Montrezl Harrell
Giannis wasn’t bothering anyone, he just wanted to shoot some free throws because he has been terrible from the line lately.
Montrezl Harrell, who only played for 6 minutes and scored one point, made a scene because he didn’t want Giannis to do any extra work.

According to The Athletic. Giannis Antetokounmpo, a star player for Milwaukee, tried to shoot more free throws after he had a bad game at the line. Montrezl Harrell, the Sixers’ backup centre, and Jordan Love, a member of the coaching staff, came back to the court. Harrell took the ball from Giannis and wouldn’t give it back.

Giannis Antetokounmpo pleaded with Harrell as he stood in the corner shaking his head and holding the ball. Harrell yelled at Antetokounmpo, “This isn’t Milwaukee!” The Athletic was there and heard it. “Get that piece of crap out of there.”
Antetokounmpo had the worst shooting game of his career, making only 4 of 15 free throws. He left the court and came back with two basketballs. When he got back, an employee of the Wells Fargo Center had moved a big A-frame ladder in front of the basket where Giannis was shooting. Antetokounmpo asked the man to move the ladder so he could finish shooting, but the man said no twice.

Giannis Antetokounmpo was angry about what had happened to him, so he tried to move the ladder out of the way and ended up knocking it over. As the ladder fell to the court, the worker in the arena ran away. Harrell also decided for some reason to threaten Giannis’s brother Thanasis, which made things even worse.
Thanasis Antetokounmpo, who plays for Milwaukee, went to midcourt to talk to Harrell after Giannis Antetokounmpo had left the court for good. He was threatened by the Sixers’ backup centre, who said things like “I’ll beat your a—” and “you should send that s— back to the locker room.” Thanasis left without any trouble.
