Jeff’s King of the Court Pick for Wednesday, November 20: Giannis Antetokounmpo

I picked Giannis last week in the official King of the Court return, and he cashed. Let’s run it back.

Look, I understand this is a boring, chalk pick. However, Giannis is the significant favorite on today’s slate for a reason. Milwaukee’s superstar is currently averaging what would be a career-high 31.4 points and 12.4 rebounds per game. Tonight, Giannis draws one of his favorite matchups, as he dominates the Bulls.

Over the last two seasons, Antetokounmpo has averaged 35.4 points, 12.8 rebounds and 4.8 assists against Chicago. I expect similar numbers from him tonight as he defends his King of the Court crown.
