Watch: Giannis Antetokounmpo makes annoyed and childish gesture after getting ejected for silly reason

Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks was ejected on Wednesday night (Nov. 8) against the Detroit Pistons. Antetokounmpo was clearly annoyed and made a childish gesture towards the referees after he was called for a second technical foul due to a silly reason.

The Bucks were up by 11 points with nine minutes left in the third quarter. Antetokounmpo blocked a shot and drove coast-to-coast against multiple Pistons defenders. He ended up dunking the ball over Isaiah Stewart before staring him down for a second.

"The Greek Freak" also did the "too small" gesture for fun, but a referee called him for a technical foul for taunting. It was his second technical foul, as he was called for one earlier in the second quarter.

As he was arguing with the officials, Antetokounmpo sat courtside with an annoyed look and crossed his legs in disappointment.

Here's the entire video of the play, the technical foul and Antetokounmpo's reaction:

Giannis Antetokounmpo was so frustrated with the officials that it took some time for him to go back to the locker room. The crowd inside the Fiserv Forum was not happy as well, as they had paid a lot of money to see Antetokounmpo play.

It was also a soft technical foul, as many players have used the "too small" gesture and gotten away with it scot-free. Players and coaches had to restrain him, with his brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo calming him down and pushing towards the exit, with the Milwaukee Bucks up by 13 points at that point.

Without their best player on the court, Milwaukee were unable to hold the lead. The Detroit Pistons ended the third quarter on a 35-17 run to take the 95-90 advantage heading into the final frame.
