BREAKING: The Milwaukee Bucks have just announced the re-signing of forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo to a one-year deal worth $2.9 million. This pivotal move ensures that Thanasis will continue to be a teammate of his brother, two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo, as the team gears up for the upcoming season.
Thanasis, who missed the entire 2024-25 season due to a torn Achilles tendon, last appeared on the court during the 2023-24 season, where he played limited minutes in just 34 games and averaged less than one point per game. Currently, he is representing Greece in EuroBasket, showcasing his resilience and commitment to the sport.
This re-signing follows discussions between the Bucks and Giannis’ representatives, Giorgios Panou and Alex Saratsis, earlier this offseason about future plans. Giannis, a cornerstone of the franchise, has spent all 12 seasons of his NBA career with Milwaukee, averaging an impressive 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game last season.
The Bucks are looking to build on their competitive roster as they aim for a successful season ahead. Fans are eager to see how the return of Thanasis will affect team dynamics and performance on the court.
Stay tuned for more updates as the Bucks prepare for what promises to be an exciting season!
