Milwaukee Bucks' star Giannis Antetokounmpo revealed his confident side during a postgame presser. The 30-year-old basketball star confidently said,
“One thing for sure that I know in my nature is I always find a way to get up. Every time I play for my nation, I fall in love with the game. When you’re able to make Greeks happy and be able to inspire the next generation the way they inspire us. I just love the culture, I love the locker room, and I love my teammates. There's no feeling like representing your national team. This is probably the greatest accomplishment I’ve ever accomplished so far in my life.”
Overwhelmed with emotions, the Giant turned teary-eyed while talking about representing his nation against Finland. The Milwaukee Bucks’ star Giannis Antetokounmpo’s twin brother, Thanasis, was also a part of the Greek basketball roster, which made this victory more special.
