Bucks Win 2021 NBA Finals, Ending 50-Year Championship Drought

Led by Giannis Antetokounmpo's historic performance, the Milwaukee Bucks have defeated the Phoenix Suns in six games to win their first NBA championship in 50 years.

Antetokounmpo, who was named the NBA Finals MVP, scored a playoff career-high 50 points in Game 6 to lead the Bucks to a 109-103 victory.

The Bucks had trailed the Suns 2-0 in the series, but they rallied back to win four consecutive games and claim the franchise's second NBA championship.

Khris Middleton also contributed to the Bucks' victory, scoring 40 points in Game 6. Devin Booker led the Suns with 31 points, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Bucks' dominant performance.

The Bucks' victory is a major accomplishment for the franchise, which had not won an NBA championship since 1971. It is also a significant moment for Antetokounmpo, who has emerged as one of the league's best players and is now the face of the Bucks.
