OUR John Antetokounmpo stands out for his performances at this year’s EuroBasket. The leader of the national team scored a double-double in the 1/8 final match against the Czech Republic and led his team Dimitris Itoudis in the quarterfinals.
In the top eight, Greece will play Germany on Tuesday 13 September at 21:30 pm. On the occasion of the great game, Bild celebrates the life of the national team superstar and the Milwaukee Bucks.
“The Greek hero who once looked for food in the garbage” is the title of the Bild text. The German website indicates that Giannis’ brothers, Thanasis and Kostas, are also taking part in the event, and Alex is excluded from the mission.
The relevant publication states, among other things, that “Janis has become a national hero. He’s been playing in the NBA since 2013 and made $39.3 million last year,” while noting that the national team superstar “knows the other side.” As a child, he was a beggar.”
The article goes on to describe the life of Giannis and his family, mentioning that at one time there was not enough food for everyone, “and the brothers were looking for something to eat in the garbage heap.” He even adds that the Antetokounbo family lived in fear of deportation before becoming Greek citizens.
