Recently Giannis Antetokounmpo has been playing at an Elite level. But we wondered just how much his game has changed statistically over the last two years. More specifically we wanted to understand how much his efficiency has changed during the 4th quarter of the NBA playoffs. Here is his data compared to Jokic, Embiid, and Davis.

Compared to the other bigs in the league Giannis saw a +36% increase in efficiency from this year to the last. Embiid actually saw a decline in the efficiency of -13%. It is understandable considering the hard doubles sent at him this postseason. Anthony Davis came in second with a +27% increase in efficiency.
