In case you missed it, Giannis Antetokounmpo and his brothers made history in the NBA by becoming the first three-set siblings to play/get signed by one team.
The Milwaukee Bucks signed their youngest brother Alexis to a two-way deal, joining him with the two-time MVP and Thanasis who was re-hired last month after a one-season hiatus to recover from ACL injury.
The Antetokounbros are not done. They have another brother Kostas who is making waves in Europe through the Olympiacos back in their home country Greece.
Is it possible for them to play together for one team? So far, only three of them get to suit up and wear the same jersey at the same time. That is through the Greece national basketball team. Alexis is yet to make the Hellas.
They might have a hard time doing it in the NBA but it is part of their plan. This also coincides with the Buck star’s recent pronouncement that he wants to play in his home country before he gets to 36 years old.
Giannis Antetokounmpo targets to play in Greece
They might do it back home with the two-time MVP’s first ever club Filathlitikou. Giannis and his brothers talked about it months ago while he was vacation in Athens.
“Is there any possibility, aside from the national team, that we ever play in the same team,” Thanasis asked in their show Thanalysis.
“Yes. Why not?” the Greek Freak answered confidently.
“We are one away.”
He must be referring to them going pro as he mentioned that in 2022, the three of them shared the floor together during the All-Star Game when Francis was a two-way player by the Bucks.
They then mentioned that they might play for his childhood club Filathlitikous and bring them to First Division
“We’re right there. I promise you,” Giannis continued.
“Worst case scenario we go back to Filathlitikos and we play there. One or two years, take the team to the First Division.
