NBA Rescinds Fugazi Giannis Triple-Double
You see Giannis throw the ball off the underside of the rim on Sunday night and pick up a cheap triple-double? The NBA said “hell naw” –
The league has rescinded Giannis Antetokounmpo's 10th rebound last night–and thus his triple-double, sources tell ESPN. League rules say that for a field-goal attempt to count as official, the player has to shoot "with intent to score a field-goal" — i.e. to make the shot.

Giannis is a dirty cheat. Padding his stats. Worse than Brett Favre laying down for Michael Strahan. Disgraceful.
