The Milwaukee Bucks made history by uniting all three Antetokounmpo brothers on one NBA roster
The Milwaukee Bucks have officially made history by signing Alex Antetokounmpo, uniting him with his brothers Giannis and Thanasis on the same roster for the upcoming NBA season.
This marks the first time in league history that three brothers — and the first from Nigeria and Greece — will play on the same team.
Giannis Antetokounmpo, the Bucks’ franchise cornerstone and two-time MVP, continues to dominate the league, coming off a strong 2024–25 season where he averaged 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game.
His older brother Thanasis, who recently re-signed on a one-year, $2.9 million deal, contributed as a spark off the bench, averaging just under one point per game in limited minutes but serving as a vital locker-room leader and defensive presence.
Alex Antetokounmpo, the youngest of the trio, joins the team on a two-way contract after several seasons of development in the G League and overseas, where he averaged around five points and nearly three rebounds per game. His signing adds both depth and a symbolic family unity to Milwaukee’s roster.
The Bucks’ decision to bring all three Antetokounmpo brothers together represents more than just a basketball milestone — it’s a cultural statement that celebrates family, perseverance, and the global reach of the sport.
For Nigeria, Greece, and fans around the world, this moment reflects the remarkable journey of the Antetokounmpo family, from the streets of Athens to the pinnacle of professional basketball.
As the Bucks prepare for the 2025–26 season, the trio’s presence embodies the team’s spirit of loyalty and unity. With Giannis leading the charge, Thanasis adding energy and experience, and Alex offering youthful potential, Milwaukee steps into a new chapter built on history, family, and pride.
