The team recently signed his brother Thanasis to a contract and today, Bleacher Report released a prile on his 17-year-old brother, Alex.
In the prile, Giannis claims that Alex is poised to make the NBA and even has the potential to surpass him as a superstar player.
“I definitely think Alex can be better than me,” Antetokounmpo said. “He stays motivated. He wants this. That’s what makes him special. He’s not satisfied.”
Giannis explained in a recent interview that he’s only reached 60 percent his potential which means the league should be on high alert. As for Alex Antetokounmpo, he’s not interested in trying to be better than his big brother.
“My end goal is not to be better than Giannis,” Alex said. “My end goal is to be the best version my own self. I just happen to think that the best version my own self could possibly surpass what my brother’s doing right now, which — I don’t even think that’s the best version him.”
