Anthony Davis and Jimmy Butler were both extraordinarily big-time tonight, at the expense of the Bucks and Celtics respectively.
David erupted for 44 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and three blocks, while Jimmy Butler dropped 25 points and 15 rebounds while hitting big shot after big shot down the stretch.
Here’s how the NBA world is reacting:
Win of the year. This team is building man. Anthony Davis is a damn monster. LeBron looks to be getting his rhythm. What a fucking win.

Anthony Davis just went toe-to-toe with Giannis and won. That says everything you need to know about his season so far.

Next time Jimmy Butler is thirsty on a Private Jet we better listen! He walked into the Garden and put JB and Tatum over his lap like twin babies! Carry on…
