Milwaukee might have had the worst record in the league last season, but they’ve got an excellent rookie in Jabari Parker, a new head coach in Jason Kidd, a more svelte O.J. Mayo and the Greek Freak, Giannis Antetokounmpo. The latter showed another flash of brilliance on Saturday with a block on one end and a flush on the other.
There aren’t many 6-11 and growing second-year players who can block Taj Gibson, like Antetokounmpo does here…
then immediately fill the lane on the other end to flush the feed off the Mayo dish:
But then again, there aren’t many players who might have superstardom in their future.
With Gary Payton advising Giannis as a possible 7-foot point guard (remember, he’s still growing), and a highlight-filled summer playing for Greece at the FIBA World Cup, there’s no ceiling right now for the exciting 19 year old.
Does Antetokounmpo ever become a superstar?
