The NBA world finally learned where two-time defending league MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo will play the rest of his prime.
On Tuesday news broke that the Milwaukee Bucks managed to sign the superstar to a reported five-year, $228.2 million contract.
“This is a big moment for me and my family and I want to thank the Bucks organization for believing in us,” he said, via ESPN’s Malika Andrews.
“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.”
Antetokounmpo’s supermax extension will be the largest deal in NBA history.
