Nigerian Freak Giannis Antetokounmpo was disappointed as the Milwaukee Bucks lost 102-115 to the Brooklyn Nets.

At Barclays Center in New York, the Milwaukee Bucks suffered a demoralizing 115-102 loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday night.

The Bucks are predicted to compete for the 2025 NBA Championship, while the Nets are among the league's worst teams.

In 33 minutes of play, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo ended with 22 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists, one steal, and one block.

Giannis of Bucks on struggles

When he spoke to the media following the game, he was honest about the Bucks' struggles.

He said, "Right now, we don't have an identity.

"How are we going to win the game? Are we going to defend? 48 minutes.

"Are we going to move the ball for 48 minutes? Are we going to attack?... We've gotta find an identity. We don't have that right now."

The defeat comes after the Bucks lost a derby at home against the Chicago Bulls.

Through the first three games, Antetokounmpo is shooting 66.7% from the field and averaging 28.3 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 6.3 assists per game.

The Bucks will play again on Monday night when they travel to Boston to play Jayson Tatum and the Boston Celtics after the Nets.
