Thanasis Antetokounmpo Rejoins Bucks
🏀 Great news for Milwaukee Bucks fans! Thanasis Antetokounmpo, the older brother of superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, is officially back with the team. He has signed a one-year deal after successfully recovering from a torn Achilles tendon that kept him out last season. His return adds familiar energy and depth to the Bucks’ roster as they prepare for the upcoming season.
A Journey Back to Milwaukee
📝 Thanasis, now 33, was a consistent presence for the Bucks from the 2019-2020 season through 2023-2024, known for his hustle and defensive effort. Unfortunately, he missed the entire previous season while focusing on his rehabilitation from the significant Achilles injury. His dedication to recovery has paid off, allowing him to rejoin the team he played for for five seasons, much to the delight of his teammates and the coaching staff.
Active on the International Stage
🌍 While his return to the Bucks is now confirmed, Thanasis is currently active on the international stage. He is proudly representing his home country, Greece, in the EuroBasket tournament.
