Popularly nicknamed “The Greek Freak” by fans and media, Giannis Antetokounmpo is a Greek professional basketball player who currently plays as a power forward for the Milwaukee Bucks. Why is he known as “The Greek Freak” you may ask? Well, aren’t his outlandish physical features enough for someone to find out why?

Although he comes in at 6’11, Giannis possesses the abilities and range of a 7’3 player. What makes him implacable is his tendency to control the ball very much like a guard. Gianni’s ball-handling skills, size and speed are more than enough to help him pose as a threat to whoever stands in his way on the basketball pitch.

Born on December 6th, 1994 in Athens, Greece to Charles and Veronica Antetokounmpo, Gianni was raised in a family full of immigrants. Not having touched a basketball before 2007, the Greek player is just 27 years old but already has the achievements of a Hall of Fame draftee to his name. Who was once working various odd jobs along with his brother Thanasis to earn a living is now one of the NBA’s best players ever.

NBA and National debut

Milwaukee Bucks: It was in the 2013 NBA draft when Giannis was picked 15th overall by the Bucks. His NBA debut came on October 13th, 2013 when he was just 18 years of age, making it as one of the youngest NBA players ever.

National team: In the year 2014, Giannis made his national debut for Greece, making it into the senior men’s Greek national basketball team during the 2014 FIFA Basketball World Cup. With a 5-1 record, he guided Greece to finish ninth overall in the competition.
