If Milwaukee Bucks' supporting cast can stay respectable the rest of the year, Giannis Antetokounmpo is going to have a strong MVP case the voters will find difficult to deny.

Other than a surprising loss to the Celtics at home, Giannis continued his Week 1 dominance and led the team to two wins over the Charlotte Hornets and the Atlanta Hawks. The 'Greek Freak' leads the team in all categories barring blocks. With Jabari Parker not slated to return to action until at least February, expect Antetokounmpo to continue putting up such insane all-round numbers.

The Bucks have a tough two weeks ahead, not only in terms of competition but also in terms of playing on the road. Will Giannis' hot start remain or was this just a flash in the pan?
