What came first, the chicken or the egg? For Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo, the answer is pretty clear. It's the chicken. Always.
The Bucks suffered an upset loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night, 115-99. The defending champions failed to sustain their strong start and the surging Cavaliers pounced on them like an all-you-can-eat chicken wings promo.
Giannis, however, took that a bit too literal after the game. During his press conference, he doesn't seem too bothered by the Bucks' defeat, as he chomped down a bucket of chicken wings. Ah, everything is all right in the world again (via Milwaukee Bucks).

Giannis' love for all things chicken is well-documented. He famously ordered 50 pieces of chicken nuggets the day after he led the Bucks to the NBA title with an epic 50-point special with extra hot sauce on the side. Unverified reports say up to this day, he's still finishing those 50-piece chicken nuggets.
The two-time MVP had a strong showing against the Cavaliers, finishing with 26 points, nine rebounds, and three assists, although he did commit seven turnovers.
But instead of sulking, the fun-loving Bucks star rewarded himself with a bucket of chicken wings. When you're a defending champion, you can do pretty much anything. Besides, nothing numbs despair than a bunch of good ol' chicken wings.
The new question now for Giannis is: Is he a flats or a drums guy?
