The Milwaukee Bucks are NBA champions after defeating the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night.

Forward Giannis Antetokounmpo dominated the finals with 50 points, 14 rebounds, and five blocks as the Bucks beat the Suns 105-98 to win the series 4-2.

The 26-year-old was named the NBA Finals MVP following his performance.

The Bucks are now the fifth team to win the NBA Finals after trailing 2-0 and the first to do it by winning the next four games since Miami against Dallas in 2006.

Roughly 68,000 fans flooded the streets of Milwaukee outside the Fiserv Forum arena to celebrate the win.

It had been 50 years since the Milwaukee Bucks last won an NBA championship.
