He still feels far from his standards John Antetokounmpo. After the Bucks friendly loss to Thunderthe Greek Freak emphasized that he has not found a rhythm, since a few weeks ago he started training normally after the surgery he had in the summer, which deprived him of participation in the World Cup with the National team.
“I’m still a little rusty, feeling a little heavy. In the Heat series I wasn’t completely healthy. In the summer I had the operation and could not participate in the preparation, not even in a training of the National team. Three weeks ago they actually gave me permission to sprint. Sometimes I expect a lot from myself and I am strict with him, but it will take time. I may have some good games, some bad games, but gradually I will find my rhythm. I don’t know how I look in the first friendly, but I still don’t feel like I usually do. Even if I have a problem-free preparation, sometimes I can be rusty, like last year. I don’t judge the game by points and stats, but by how I feel and how I can help my team offensively and defensively. We have days ahead of us and I will get better“, said the 28-year-old ace.
As for its use in position “5” he said: “We are in preparation, it is the time to make mistakes, to do tests, to see what works and what doesn’t. I think I can also play at ‘5’, but it’s not my natural position. But sometimes you have to do things that will help your team. I’ve played games at ‘5’ and when we have absences in that position we have to find a way to fill their gaps».
