by

In one of his rare TV appearances, Nikos Galis spoke for the first time about the women of his life (his mother, his wife and his daughter), while he also referred to the big meeting he had last September with Giannis Antitokunbo after winning the NBA with the Bucks.

«I was in Yugoslavia, as soon as I returned to Greece my sister called me and informed me that my mother had left. It bothered me, but life does not stop. I could not do otherwise, I could not leave the National“, First mentioned the legend of Greek basketball and then referred to his wife, Eleni Panagiotou and his daughter, who is also taking her own steps in sports:

«She was working at the time and I approached her, asked her if she wanted to go out one night and she accepted my invitation. My daughter is fifteen years old. I have never talked to her about my career, others come and talk to her about me. She is involved in dance and is in the national cheerleading and came out fifth in the world championship. He makes fun of me and says: “Dad, I make bigger hits than you”!».

Regarding the meeting with Giannis Antetokounbo, he said: “We match the character with Giannis. He is like me, he does not know what he is. He is very simple and a good kid. What I told him was “how I feel like your dad and whatever advice I can give you, please call”».
