Watch: Bucks' Giannis Antetokounmpo's impressive full-court pass in victory over 76ers

On Sunday, Milwaukee Bucks power forward Giannis Antetokounmpo wowed with his quarterback impersonation against the Philadelphia 76ers.

At the end of the second quarter, the two-time MVP fired a full-court pass to center Brook Lopez, who stuffed it and gave the Bucks a 69-48 lead. 

Milwaukee (37-21) boat raced the 76ers (33-24) 119-98. Antetokounmpo finished with 30 points, 12 rebounds and nine assists. The Bucks shot 54.4 percent from the field. 

Milwaukee desperately needed a win. Entering this game, the Bucks had lost seven of their last 11 games. On a recent episode of "First Take," ESPN analyst and former Los Angeles Clippers guard JJ Reddick pointed the finger at head coach Doc Rivers — who recently replaced Adrian Griffin — citing his lack of "accountability."

Despite the recent slide, Rivers remains confident the team can win its third title. 

"I love this team. The organization is solid, man, and we got a chance. Could we win a title today? I don't know," Rivers told ESPN's Jamal Collier. "But when it's time, I think that answer will be yes."  

As of Sunday, FanDuel gives the Bucks the fourth-best odds (+650) to win a championship behind the Clippers, Denver Nuggets and Boston Celtics.
