The Milwaukee Bucks had some fun on social media celebrating their 118-93 victory Sunday over the Oklahoma City Thunder — particularly trolling the duo of Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren.
Gilgeous-Alexander and rookie Holmgren star in an AT&T commercial parodying Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Christina Aguilera’s 1999 hit single “What a Girl Wants.” In the spot, the players sing a modified rendition of the lyrics, changing the chorus of “What a girl wants, what a girl needs, whatever makes me happy sets you free” to “What a pro wants, what a pro needs, whatever makes me happy sets me free.”
After OKC’s loss, the Bucks referenced the commercial in the caption of their final-score graphic on X.

Milwaukee limited Gilgeous-Alexander and Holmgren to 12 and six points, respectively. Both struggled from deep, going a combined 0-for-8 from 3-point range.
Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee with 30 points and a season-high 19 rebounds. Forward Khris Middleton recorded his second career triple-double, finishing with 11 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
