Social media shows Milwaukee is still Giannis' city after 59-point night

National NBA media that continue to bang the drum over how the Bucks are going to keep Giannis Antetokounmpo in Milwaukee might want to watch his master-class 59-point, 14-rebound, seven assist performance Wednesday night in a 127-120 overtime victory over the Detroit Pistons.

A most valuable groove between Giannis and the fans across this city continues to play out on a nightly basis despite a disappointing start to the season.

It's true, he actually likes it here.

It's his city.

After leading the Bucks back from an 18-point deficit, social media reacted to Antetokounmpo's heroic effort.

Upgrade his downtown mural to a statue soon.
