Giannis Antetokounmpo is in Milwaukee to stay. The NBA superstar has agreed to a new three-year deal for $186 million.
The Greek is now signed with the Bucks until 2028.
The 2021 NBA championship winner and two-time season MVP, Antetokounmpo scored a career-high 31.1 points per game last year, while adding 11.8 rebounds and 5 .7 assists.
Unknown to North American fans when he was selected 15th in the 2013 draft by the Bucks, Antetokounmpo has become one of the best players of a new generation of European players in the NBA.
The “Greek Freak” already has 719 games of NBA experience. A five-time NBA All-Defensive First Team All-Star, Antetokounmpo also added a Finals MVP award in 2021 and was named Defensive Player of the Year in 2019-20.
