As a teammate and brother of the Greek Freak, the older Antetokounmpo has found some success in the NBA, highlighted by winning an NBA championship in 2021. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/thanasis-antetokounmpos-net-worth-in-2024">Antetokounmpo also has built a net worth</a> of $5 million from his pro basketball career.</p><p>However, NBA fans also love to ridicule the Bucks’ backup forward with a nod to nepotism. Moreover, there have been endless jokes circulating around social media that target Antetokounmpo’s abilities to be in the NBA.</p><p>Although Antetokounmpo does have some shortcomings, he’s still an NBA champion that’s capable of keeping in step with the best basketball players in the world. Let’s take a look at 10 moments that prove Thanasis Antetokounmpo isn’t a scrub.</p><h2><b>Being the perfect running mate to his brother</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>One of Thanasis’ best attributes is his ability to cut to the basket. As a result, Thanasis cutting to the basket on the weakside makes him a perfect recipient after Giannis makes a drive before making a last-minute pass. Aside from his tendency to cut through the weakside, Thanasis is a solid finisher under the basket.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo locking Donovan Mitchell</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>Although the Cleveland Cavaliers hammered the Bucks, 135-95, Thanasis Antetokounmpo made sure to give the Bucks enough momentum heading into the next game in the final frame. Down already by 38 with the game out of hand, Antetokounmpo managed to execute an emphatic block against All-Star guard Donovan Mitchell and capped the play off with a stare-down.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo bringing out the Shammgod</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">AHHHHHHH Thanasis Shammgod!!! <a href="https://t.co/ZpLHikazMn">pic.twitter.com/ZpLHikazMn</a></p><p>— Rob Perez (@WorldWideWob) <a href="https://twitter.com/WorldWideWob/status/1756151596948594858?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Against the Charlotte Hornets, the Bucks came away with a dominant 120-84 victory. This paved the way for the elder Antetokounmpo to play in garbage time. In 11 minutes of action, he registered four points. However, two of those points were scored when Antetokounmpo <a href="https://x.com/WorldWideWob/status/1756151596948594858?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1756151596948594858%7Ctwgr%5E8d209c3eb3de0b4e5d0faa2b85e9c7be1f4ae9f9%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwp.clutchpoints.com%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost.php%3Fpost%3D2760705action%3Dedit" rel="noopener">brought out the Shammgod</a> for a layup.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo </b><b>puts Micah Potter on a poster</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thanasis throws down a poster dunk! <br>Giannis tells him to get back on defense with a 30-point lead in the 4th <a href="https://t.co/XDxn6o12XG">pic.twitter.com/XDxn6o12XG</a></p><p>— Ballislife.com (@Ballislife) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ballislife/status/1639647300988329986?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 25, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>When he gets a chance, Antetokounmpo surely loves to dunk the ball. Already holding a comfortable lead over the Utah Jazz, he still went to work in the post against Jazz big man Micah Potter. In the 144-116 victory, Antetokounmpo threw down a poster dunk over the 6-foot-8 center for the icing on the cake.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo’s t</b><b>wo-handed poster over Nemanja Bjelica</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>When the Bucks hammered the Golden State Warriors, 118-99, the elder Antetokounmpo only managed to score two points. However, he did it in the most explosive way possible by dunking over Serbian big man Nemanja Bjelica with two hands.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo </b><b>dunks over Patrick Williams</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Patrick Williams on Giannis Antetokounmpo: "I feel like a lot of people in this league are scared or nervous to guard guys like that… He puts his pants on the same way I do.

In the 111-81 win, the Bucks capped off the game with Antetokounmpo dunking over first-round draft pick Patrick Williams. Although Antetokounmpo only scored four points, that dunk impressed nearly everyone, including his brother.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo </b><b>soars in for the putback dunk at MSG</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">😤 Thanasis Antetokounmpo putback dunk against his former team! </p><p>Little Brother &amp; the <a href="https://twitter.com/Bucks?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Bucks</a> bench were loving it. <a href="https://twitter.com/Thanasis_ante43?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Thanasis_ante43</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/Giannis_An34?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Giannis_An34</a> <a href="https://t.co/j2IHeSSlAf">pic.twitter.com/j2IHeSSlAf</a></p><p>— Ballislife.com (@Ballislife) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ballislife/status/1208752702920052736?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 22, 2019</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Although Antetokounmpo wasn’t a heavy scorer for the Bucks on a nightly basis, he does find a way to make a positive impact. There’s no doubt that shooters like Kyle Korver have more confidence to take shots, especially with the solid timing of Antetokounmpo.</p><p>His ability to get rebounds and finish around the rim deserves a place in the Bucks’ rotation if they decide to re-sign the free agent. In fact, he proved it here when he dunked all over another former team.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo scores </b><b>over Kevin Durant</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>Thanks to Kevin Durant’s size and length, it’s safe to say only a handful of basketball players can score over him. However, Antetokounmpo proved that he’s not your average casual baller by managing to score over the outstretched arms of Durant.</p><p>To make matters more interesting, the Bucks forward even scored on a one-on-one isolation play over Durant off an offensive board.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo has </b><b>20-10 double-double versus former team</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>Many trolls often question whether Antetokounmpo deserves to play in the NBA. However, in a game against his former team, Antetokounmpo exploded for 23 points to go along with 10 rebounds to notch his first-career double-double. The Greek forward even put on a shooting clinic by hitting four of five 3-pointers to lead all Bucks scorers in the 102-96 loss against the Knicks.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo drops a career-high 27 points</b></h2><figure class="op-interactive"></figure><p>If a 20-10 night isn’t enough, Antetokounmpo does have an NBA career-high 27 points in a single game. In a 133-115 loss against the Cavs, Thanasis was a silver lining for the Bucks.</p><p>He shot 64% from the field overall and 80% from the charity stripe. Moreover, Antetokounmpo also added five rebounds and two assists in the defeat. Sure enough, not many scrubs can tally 27 points in an NBA game.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The same <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-bucks-open-on-numerous-trade-fronts-ahead-of-2024-draft">has been said in reference to Milwaukee Bucks forward</a> Thanasis Antetokounmpo whose brother is star Giannis Antetokounmpo as he talks about how the situation with him was earned and not given because of his name.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo talks his draft history before Bucks</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Thanasis-Antetokounmpo-hyped-up-with-Damian-Lillard-on-the-bench-on-April-21-2024.jpg"><figcaption>Benny Sieu-USA TODAY Sports</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-thanasis-antetokounmpo-diagnosed-with-brutal-injury-after-first-round-exit-vs-pacers">Thanasis Antetokounmpo was</a> on the show “The Bootleg Kev Podcast” where he spoke about the claims that he has a job in the NBA because of his brother. However, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEjde9IFbgw&amp;t=14s" rel="noopener">the Bucks star would shoot down those claims</a> as there were teams interested in him in the same NBA Draft that his brother Giannis went 15th overall in as he would have apparently been selected by the Brooklyn Nets in the second round.</p><p>“You know you see people say stuff online, I’m like guys if you really knew you’d be like what!” Thanasis Antetokounmpo said. “So Giannis gets drafted, and in the same draft that Giannis gets drafted, I had an agent at the time, I was the best man at his wedding, they call him and go, “hey, is Thanasis in the draft,” this is 2 days before, he goes “no, he’s not in the draft” they go “damn we would’ve picked him at #52 with Brooklyn. I go like what, they would’ve picked me. Mind you I have no paper work, nothing, I didn’t do nothing you have to submit everything.

However, he was then asked about basketball analyst and former player Charles Barkley saying that he will always have a job when his sibling is on the team since the duo of brothers are on the Bucks. The lesser known brother though would take that as a “compliment,” also saying that besides having a great attitude, “you’ve got to bring something to the table.”</p><p>“That’s a compliment, because that means I’m a good person. Nobody gives you nothing if they don’t like you first of all, that’s one thing,” Antetokounmpo said on “The Bootleg Kev” show. “And you’ve got to bring something to the table, but I actually like Charles Barkley and I actually like Shaq. This is like a funny joke but like the thing is what happens is, some kids believe that.”</p><h2><b>Nepotism a topic of discussion with news of Bronny James</b></h2><p>Nepotism has been a <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/players-bucks-must-avoid-in-2024-nba-draft">topic of conversation with the Antetokounmpo</a> brothers on the Bucks, but the conversation has been amplified tenfold with the Lakers drafting the 19-year old Bronny James in the second round. However, a media personality like Stephan A.

Ownership, executive ranks, player personnel, scouting, coaching, the list goes on and on. We’ve said little to nothing about it. And now this happens with LeBron James, a member of the Mount Rushmore of basketball, and all of a sudden you’ve got people running their mouths.”</p><p>“Bronny James would not be on an NBA roster if it were not for LeBron James,” Smith continued. “We all know this. We accept it. The issue is the resentment that’s emanating from people out there. How dare you resent LeBron James…America, not everybody, not most, but a lot of people are about, ‘stay in your place, stay in your lane.’ And LeBron James has religiously been about the business of defining his own lane.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Stephen A.

On the other hand, people wonder if the current status of his roster spot could be where nepotism comes in to play.</p><p>Giannis Antetokounmpo is a perennial All-Star, has won two NBA MVP awards, won a championship, and consistently puts up insane statistics like last season where he averaged 30.4 points, 11.5 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game while shooting 61.1 percent from the field. For his brother, he has not cracked over three points per game, especially in the 2023-24 basketball year where he played in 34 games, averaging 4.6 minutes per game.</p><p>At any rate, Thanasis Antetokounmpo is looking to make a larger impact with the Bucks once he fully recovers from a torn achilles tendon that he had surgery for. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-news-damian-lillards-reveal-doc-rivers-helps-explain-bucks-failed-season">Looking at Milwaukee itself</a>, they had a disappointing ending to their season being eliminated by the Indiana Pacers in the first round with Giannis out with injury. Though, they still finished with a 49-33 season putting them at the third seed amidst a coaching change in the middle of the year as they fired Adrian Griffin and hired Doc Rivers.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

To make matters worse, Giannis’ brother Thanasis Antetokounmpo has been hit with a shocking Achilles injury after the Bucks’ postseason run.</p><h2><b>Thanasis Antetokounmpo gets devasting injury diagnosis</b></h2><p>Forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo <a href="https://twitter.com/ShamsCharania/status/1788330712833106072" rel="noopener">has sustained a torn</a> Achilles tendon and will undergo surgery, Shams Charania reports. Antetokounmpo did not see much time on the floor during the Pacers series or the regular season, yet, his injury is devastating. Hopefully, he will have a speedy and efficient recovery process.</p><p>Thanasis Antetokounmpo appeared in 34 regular season games for the Bucks and only played 4.6 minutes per contest. Antetokounmpo’s on-the-court production is not eye-popping, but he offers great support to his younger brother Giannis and the rest of the Bucks squad.</p><p>Giannis Antetokounmpo had big plans for the Bucks in the 2024 NBA Playoffs, but a late regular season calf strain prevented him from playing. Antetokounmpo was playing some of the best basketball of his career in 2023-24. The 29-year-old averaged 30.4 points, 11.5 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.1 blocks.</p><p>Unfortunately, the NBA world did not get to see what the star forward could do in the postseason with Damian Lillard. The Portland Trail Blazers traded Lillard to Milwaukee shortly before the start of the regular season. As a result, the Bucks’ championship odds increased. However, things did not come to fruition in 2024.</p><p>Lillard suffered an Achilles injury that caused him to miss some of the Pacers series. Before that, he achieved stout regular-season production. Lillard averaged 24.4 points, 7.0 assists, and 4.4 rebounds per game.</p><p>Ironically, Lillard and the Antetokounmpo brothers all suffered serious lower leg ailments. Hopefully, everyone can recover during the offseason and come back ready to reload in 2024-25.</p><h2><b>Bucks look to return strong for 2024-25</b></h2><p>Milwaukee was not pleased with their first-round exit in the 2024 NBA Playoffs. Frustrations boiled over in their Game 6 loss to the Pacers when Patrick Beverley got into a heated altercation with a fan. Beverley threw the game ball at a fan <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/bucks-news-patrick-beverley-apology-game-6-antics">behind the Bucks bench</a>, inadvertently striking her in the head.</p><p>He then called for the ball back and threw it at another fan before being held back by his teammates. The veteran guard faced massive backlash for the move and broke the silence shortly afterward.</p><p>“Unfortunate situation that should have never happened,” Beverley said. “What I did was bad, and that should have never happened. I have to be better and I will be better. That should have never happened. Regardless of what was said, that should have never happened, simple as that.”</p><p>Beverley was caught in more controversy when he refused an interview with an ESPN reporter due to her not being subscribed to his podcast. The veteran guard will be sure to clean up his interactions. Milwaukee needs depth pieces like himself to make a deep run in 2025.</p><p>After earning the third seed in the Eastern Conference playoffs amid many changes, the Bucks are poised for a leap. Once the team gets healthy and has more continuity with each other, the sky is the limit.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

It’s a lot of guys that might feel like they were more talented, have more ability, but they could never take his spot,” Damian Lillard said. “People try to be funny. I would put good money that a lot of people talking on Twitter wouldn’t be able to beat him in a game of one-on-one.”</p><p>Lillard continued describing the role that Thanasis Antetokounmpo plays for the Bucks saying, “You’re not going to find a guy that’s more about the team, that shows up and works hard. . .he’s the top, top of the line at his role on our team. I have a hard time seeing anybody coming in that could replace at what he does for our team.”</p><p>Thanasis was originally drafted by the New York Knicks with the No. 51 overall pick in the 2014 NBA Draft. He only ended up playing two games for the Knicks during the 2015-16 season. He’s spent the past five seasons with the Bucks and was part of the 2021 championship team.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

With the game already decided early in the fourth, Doc Rivers opted to give minutes to many of his reserves, one of whom was Thanasis Antetokounmpo.</p><p>The older Antetokounmpo, who rarely sees the floor, decided that he wasn’t going to let this opportunity pass. During the seven-minute mark, Antetokounmpo put on <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1756152452670198155" rel="noopener">a series of moves</a> that had the entire Fiserv Forum on their feet.</p><p>Sizing up the Hornets’ JT Thor at the wing, Antetokounmpo showcased a plethora of dribbling moves, one of which saw him hitting the Shammgod. The forward eventually got one step ahead of his defender using a fake spin, which then led to a layup at the rim.</p><p>Aside from the spectators, event the Bucks bench went crazy following the basket. Giannis Antetokounmpo himself was skipping up and down the sidelines in excitement for his brother.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thanasis Antetokounmpo was in his bag and Giannis Antetokounmpo was LOVING it 😂🔥<a href="https://t.co/bo9nX2Jgw4">pic.twitter.com/bo9nX2Jgw4</a></p><p>— ClutchPoints (@ClutchPoints) <a href="https://twitter.com/ClutchPoints/status/1756152452670198155?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Of course, it wasn’t long before the internet caught wind of Thanasis’ highlight.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">THANASTY</p><p>— ~ (@TheLfcKop) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheLfcKop/status/1756151784718913909?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Thansis actually has a bag</p><p>— 23 💥👑 (@Br0nToLA23) <a href="https://twitter.com/Br0nToLA23/status/1756154326593028397?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="qme">🐐</p><p>— SpartanLocks 🛡️ (@spartan_locks) <a href="https://twitter.com/spartan_locks/status/1756152375092679027?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Cook up thanasty!!!!!</p><p>— SmellyBucksFan (@SmellyBucksFan) <a href="https://twitter.com/SmellyBucksFan/status/1756151854629900368?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">RESPECT 🫡</p><p>— The Peoples’s Mix (Abdi) 🇸🇴 (@Abdi_Mix) <a href="https://twitter.com/Abdi_Mix/status/1756152545893101851?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">JT Thor getting cut after this 😭</p><p>— Phil 🌟 (@Phxlly) <a href="https://twitter.com/Phxlly/status/1756154469996245320?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 10, 2024</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p> </p><p>The Bucks’ win now halts their three-game losing streak and gives Doc Rivers his second win as head coach.
