THE Giannis Antetokounbos He returned to the US to join the Milwaukee Bucks’ preparation ahead of the new NBA season!
The Greek Freak spoke to the media representatives, making it clear that despite the fact that he has done so far in his career what he would like, he remains thirsty for even more discrimination, while stressing how important the legacy he will leave behind.
The statements by Yannis Antetokounbos:
“I think every basketball player, every athlete, starts his career and then has this quest, like what he wants to do and what he wants to remember. And I think at this point, I have accomplished everything I had put in my mind. But now I just want more. As if I want to win another championship. I want to win another medal for the national team, because the legacy is very important to me.
What they will remember for me is how I will become one of the greatest of all time. And this is a step by step, you know – training with training, play with play, season season. Just keep stacking days. Keep being consistent and available. And good things will happen. But as you have to play to win. I’m not just playing to be close or paid. I am very blessed. I take care of my family. I can live without anything. But I play to win. I play to do things on the court.
I think you have to sit with your doctors and physiotherapists at least four times a year to discuss what you want to achieve from your body. How can you stay healthy? What is the goal in every season you play? I think players are smarter in how to take care of their bodies and so you see players playing more now. And me, that’s what I want to do too. This is the 13th year. When I reach 36, I think I will still be able to play at a high level of basketball because I take care of my body well. So this will be the 19th year for me. And after that, we’ll see. We’ll see how much we can get. If we can go, we will go. If we cannot go, we will disappear on the island of Greece ».
