Giannis, a Milwaukee Bucks power forward and center, recalled that Greek basketball took 16 years to be in the Olympics. “In 16 years, I will be 45 years old. When I see my kids out there, they are able to see me compete on this stage and I can tell them the stories of how it was.” 29- year-old NBA superstar added.

As the Olympics 2024 ended. Antetokounmpo and Curry topped as the player who has the most points in a single game.
