Teams and Net Worth of the Giannis Antetokounmpo Brothers

You may refer to the Giannis Antetokounmpo Brothers stories of achievement as “grass to grace” or “rags to riches.” They are currently the hottest sports export from Greece and well-known figures in the United States, where all four of the five siblings play basketball. Like most of the “grass to grace” tales, the Antetokounmpos started in squalor. They weren’t from wealthy, resourceful families. But they were the reverse.

Charles Antetokounmpo and Veronica Antetokounmpo, their parents, were Nigerians who moved to Greece in 1991 to pursue a better life. The illustrious four were born in Athens. The Antetokounmpo brothers’ childhood was difficult, as it is for many immigrant children. They experienced some hardship in their lives.

The brothers were forced to look for means of subsistence through menial trading on the streets because their parents could not get employment due to their immigration status. They targeted onlookers with deceptive advertisements to sell them phony watches and handbags on the street. However, a stroke of luck led them to basketball glory, ending their brutal life storm.

Who is Giannis Antetokounmpo?

Who is Giannis Antetokounmpo?

The son of Nigerian immigrants, Giannis Antetokounmpo, was born in Athens, Greece, on December 6, 1994. Giannis Sina Ugo Antetokounmpo Editokunbo, who plays basketball, has been doing so since 2007. For his first 18 years of life, Adetokunbo could not leave the nation and was effectively a stateless person because he lacked any documentation from Nigeria or Greece. He was given Greek citizenship on May 9, 2013, less than two months before the 2013 NBA draught. His last name was altered to O, the Greek equivalent of Adetokunbo, in 2013. Then it became the letter, which was transliterated letter by letter and was officially put on his Greek passport as Antetokounmpo.

Francis Antetokounmpo, who is he?

Football player and musician Francis Antetokounmpo was born in Lagos, Nigeria, on October 20, 1988. He is of Nigerian heritage and Greek nationality, and the sign of his horoscope is Libra. Francis Olowu Ofili Adetokunmbo is his full name, although he is best known by his stage name Francis Antetokounmpo. He grew up with his siblings in his hometown, where his parents raised him affectionately.

The names of his four younger brothers are Alex Antetokounmpo, Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Antetokounmpo Coast, and Giannis Antetokounmpo. His father is Charles Antetokounmpo, and his mother is Veronica Antetokounmpo. They finished their education in a private school in a suburb of Lagos, Nigeria. Francis plays midfielder in soccer. He enjoys singing.

Thanasis Antetokounmpo

The second of the five brothers, Athanasios, is frequently called Thanasis. He was born on July 18, 1992, in Athens, a year after his parents immigrated to Greece. In 2008, he became a member of a youth basketball league and began competing for the Filathlitikos junior team. In the Greek fourth division’s semi-professional divisions, he progressed to the senior men’s team in 2010. In the 2011–2012 season, he played a crucial role in the team’s promotion to the third tier.

As a result of being selected by the Delaware 87ers in the 2013 NBA Development League Draft, his career received a boost in late 2013. Instead of waiting to become draft-eligible in 2013, he chose to play in the NBA D-League and sacrifice his right to play professional basketball in Greece.

The decision paid off for him, though, as he had a strong NBA Development League season, averaging 12.0 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.3 blocks over 50 games. This allowed him to rank among the top 50 prospects in the upcoming NBA draught class.

The New York Knicks selected Antetokounmpo with the 51st overall choice in the 2014 NBA Draft on June 26, and it was the beginning of the “Greek Freak’s” basketball career. He is currently a professional basketball player for the Milwaukee Bucks in the NBA.

Kostas Antetokounmpo

Kostas, born on November 20, 1997, also had a brief time with the Filathlitikos young team like Thanasis and Giannis. However, after the family relocated to Milwaukee, opportunities for him were available as his older brother Giannis was selected by the Milwaukee Bucks. He enrolled at Dominican High School and continued his high school basketball career there. He once won a state championship with his high school team.

After graduating from high school, Kostas continues to play basketball in college at the University of Dayton. In his final college basketball season, he averaged 5.2 points, 0.4 assists, 0.2 steals, 1.1 blocks, and 2.9 rebounds in 15.1 minutes per game. Early in 2018, Kostas declared for the NBA draught, and on May 4, 2018, the Philadelphia 76ers selected him. He was then traded to the Dallas Mavericks.

On March 20, 2019, he lost to the Portland Trail Blazers in his NBA debut. Currently, he competes for the South Bay Lakers of the NBA G League.

Alex  Antetokounmpo

The career of Alex Antetokounmpo, the eldest of the Antetokounmpo brothers, is still in its infancy. In 2013, he relocated to Milwaukee from Greece after his older brother Giannis signed with the Milwaukee Bucks.

So far, Alex has been named to the first-team all-state and averaged 20 points and seven rebounds per game during his senior year. The following year, Alex would be eligible for the NBA draught. However, information received indicates that the 21-year-old signed a three-year contract with the Spanish team UCAM Murcia last month.

The agreement is said to have a significant financial payoff and an NBA summer exit provision that will let him join his brothers in the United States.

Veronica and Charles Antetokounmpo Giannis Antetokounmpo’s parents

Veronica and Charles, Giannis’ parents, were former athletes in Nigeria. His mother participated in the high jump while his father played soccer. A multimillionaire athlete with a humble upbringing, Giannis. Before deciding to go to Greece in 1992 in search of a better life, his parents were born and reared in Nigeria. They lacked legal documents because their immigration was unauthorized.

This factor made it impossible for the Antetokounmpo parents to get long-term employment. The brothers would sell goods to tourists to survive because of the crisis in Greece’s economy. Nigerian-born Charles Antetokounmpo played professional football. Former high jumper Veronica Antetokounmpo competed professionally. She is the mother of five athletes, the most well-known being Giannis Antetokounmpo.
