Giannis Antetokounmpo, who some have pegged as the heir apparent to Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James as the NBA’s top player, has signed a multi-year extension with the Milwaukee Bucks, the team announced Tuesday.
“This is a big moment for me and my family and I want to thank the Bucks organization for believing in us,” said Antetokounmpo in a written statement. “You took a chance on us eight years ago and now putting my signature on a contract like this is unreal–but it’s all because of hard work. This is my home and I’m going to continue working hard and do my best to make the Bucks, our fans and the city proud. Let’s have fun, win, and make these years count.”
