(CNN) -

The Milwaukee Bucks won their first NBA championship in 50 years, defeating the Phoenix Suns 105-98 in Game 6 of the final on Tuesday in Milwaukee.

Star Giannis Antetokounmpo led the Bucks with 50 points and 14 rebounds.

Khris Middleton had 17 points and Bobby Portis had 16. Phoenix's Chris Paul led the Suns with 26 points.

Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 50 points during the Milwaukee Bucks' victory over the Phoenix Suns.

Antetokounmpo was the first player to have at least 40 points, 10 rebounds and five blocks in a Finals game since the blocks were first recorded in 1974, the NBA tweeted.

He became the seventh player to have at least 50 points in the championship round.

In 1971, the Bucks won the title in their third season supported by the outstanding play of Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (then Lew Alcindor) and Oscar Robertson.

They beat the Baltimore Bullets in four games, winning the last game on the road.
