Giannis Antetokounmpo
Giannis Antetokounmpo has grown to become more than what many of the NBA followers would have expected him to be. His transition from being a skinny and lanky role player to an absolute monster on the court earned him his back-to-back Most Valuable Player title. Every season, Giannis has always improved his game on defense and offense.
The Greek Freak became one of five players to ever win the Defensive Player of the Year award along with the MVP title in the same year. Last year, he along with the Milwaukee Bucks were able to secure the title despite people often criticizing the player for choking during the playoffs. The defending champions are on their way to running it back this season as well.
Giannis Antetokounmpo used to make his girlfriend run suicides if he missed a free throw
Giannis Antetokounmpo is a big body many fear defending due to his ability to cut through opponents and posterize them. There is one aspect he was never good at and that is shooting the ball. However, during his latest seasons, he has improved that side of his game and used it against defenders to catch them off guard.
A recent tweet revealed that Giannis used to make his girlfriend run suicide sets every time he missed a free throw. It would make sense to see someone else put in the effort to exercise while the other person fails. This may have been a way to motivate the player to improve his shooting percentages as suicides usually tend to get painful if done profusely.
Giannis Antetokounmpo leads the Bucks through the playoffs against the Boston Celtics
It is quite tough to say who might emerge out of this series as both teams are very defensively oriented and talented. The Boston Celtics are definitely taking advantage of the fact that the Bucks are missing sharpshooter Khris Middleton who pairs up well with Giannis Antetokounmpo for offensive firepower. The series is currently tied with two games a piece and the eagerness is mounting up for fans.
The Celtics took home Game 4 led by Jayson Tatum and Al Horford scoring a combined of 60 points. Antetokounmpo finished the match with 34 points, 18 rebounds, and 5 assists. The European baller has been averaging 32 points per game in this series as the Bucks rely on him to get to the Eastern Conference Finals. He had a historic Game 3 performance recording 42 points, 12 rebounds, and 8 assists on 16 of 30 shooting.
