Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best basketball players alive and, because of him, the Milwaukee Bucks are one of the best teams in the NBA.
Remember, they won the Finals just a couple of seasons ago, thanks to the entire squad and most especially their two-time MVP, Antetokounmpo.

He has come a long way in just ten years.
He was once a smaller, mostly unknown star whose name was always mispronounced.
And now Antetokounmpo is one of the most celebrated and talked-about athletes in the entire world.
What will he bring his team and his fans in the upcoming season?
Based on what he’s saying, it could be quite a lot.
The Greek Freak Returns
During the 2020-21 season, Antetokounmpo averaged 28.1 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 5.9 assists.
That resulted in him and his team winning the Finals and giving Antetokounmpo his first ring.
The wild thing is that he was even better last season, putting up 29.9 points, 11.6 rebounds, and 5.8 assists.
Yes, he is only getting better and that bodes well for his team in the future.
The problem last season was that the Bucks suffered from some injuries at the worst time possible.
The rest of the East was gunning for the reigning champions and they worked hard to take them down.
Now, Antetokounmpo and his squad are aiming for a revenge season and they haven’t been hiding that fact.
It’ll be hard, of course, but Antetokounmpo has seemed laser-focused and tuned into this cause lately.
If anyone can bounce back and return to the Finals, it’ll be Antetokounmpo.
The young man is healthy, physically fit, and mentally ready for what’s ahead.
He has his eyes on the prize and is aiming for the trophy again.
