Hawks fans’ counting had Giannis Antetokounmpo air-balling free throws (Video)

The counting by Atlanta Hawks fans caused Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo to air-ball his two free throw attempts in Game 4 on Tuesday night.

The Milwaukee Bucks‘ chances of winning Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals drastically increased after Atlanta Hawks star Trae Young was ruled out with a foot injury prior to tipoff. Yet, the Bucks struggled to stop the Young-less Hawks offense. To make matters worse, Hawks fans got into the head of Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has felt the wrath of opposing fanbases for how long he takes to shoot free throws.

In the second quarter, Hawks fans in State Farm Arena loudly counted at Antetokounmpo to get the referees to call him for a 10-second violation. While they were unsuccessful on that front, they did get Antetokounmpo to airball two free-throw attempts.

Hawks fans troll Giannis Antetokounmpo at the free throw line during Game 4

Those are two free throw attempts that the Bucks star would like to have back. Not only did he fail to convert on those shots, but he motivated the home crowd in Atlanta.

Antetokounmpo had a first half to forget, as he scored 6 points while shooting 3-for-7 from the field and 0-for-3 at the free-throw line. While Antetokounmpo did record 6 rebounds and 3 assists, he also turned the ball over twice and had a plus/minus rating of minus-14.

Hawks have one thing in common with the Brooklyn Nets and Miami Heat fanbases, and that is their love of trolling Giannis at the free throw line during the NBA Playoffs.
