Dunston for Sluka: “As soon as I told him to become my godfather, he burst out laughing”

THE Brian Dunston and Costas Sloukas maintain excellent relations since the time they competed together in Greece with the jerseys of Aris and Olympiakos.

The two men took their relationship one step further 2018, when the Greek guard became the godfather of the American at the Lantern of Istanbul, baptizing his old friend so that he can marry his good one!

In his statements to “BasketNews”, the ace of Eastern Efes referred to this incredible as well as sweet story, stating among other things that Sloukas is the most beautiful man he has ever met.

“Kostas is younger than me. I wanted to marry my wife, but religion prevented me from doing so. She is a Christian Orthodox. I had to be baptized, otherwise I could not marry her.

We were in Istanbul and the only Christian Orthodox I knew was playing in Fenerbahce. He was in our opposing team. But I have known him since we were teammates on Mars when I first came to Europe. It was beautiful what happened. “He is the most beautiful person I have ever met,” the 35-year-old center initially said.

Then he explained the first conversation he had with Sloukas, when he announced it to him, bursting into laughter: “When I first asked him to become my godfather, Sloukas thought I was joking. One morning he, my wife and her father and I went to church. We did the ritual, we read the Bible. It was crazy, but beautiful at the same time.

I would not trade this experience for anything! As soon as I left the church I felt that I was a different person. Then they allowed me to get married. And now, Sloukas and I are stuck for a lifetime! ”
