Grant Williams has passed Steph Curry for the NBA record for 3-point attempts in a Game 7 with 16 shots, per @Stathead. He's 7/16 tonight with a game-high 25 points.

With Giannis Antetokounmpo eliminated, a strong case can be made that Luka Doncic is the best player left standing. For now, at least.

Giannis Antetokounmpo has solidified his status as the best player in basketball even without a deep playoff run.
Don’t @ me.

Can't wait for tomorrow's Undisputed to see how Shannon attempts to defend the man he proclaims "The Best Player on the Planet" – Giannis. Really??? On which planet? Pluto? He missed so many bunnies today this should've been Easter Sunday.

I know people are going to scream about travels and charges, but Giannis is INCREDIBLE. He's absolutely terrifying to go again. What a player.
