Giannis Antetokounmpo! There is hardly one NBA highlight video without the name of this young prodigy. The superstar for the Milwaukee Bucks is a talent like no other.
As I mentioned in my previous article, he is the second most efficient player on the floor behind only King James. But, it is just a matter of few seasons until the "Greek Freak" will replace the King not only as the most efficient player in NBA, but also as the best player in the NBA.
LeBron James may still be the king, but the Greek Freak has his eyes on the throne
But what if I told you that the 23-year-old Giannis is not the only Antetokounmpo with such great potential?

Thanasis Antetokounmpo
The 6'7" small forward is currently playing in the Greek League and the Euro League and he is on a two-year contract with Panathinaikos.
He had entered the 2014 NBA Draft and was selected 51st overall by the New York Knicks where he was selected for the 2014 Summer League roster. He was later acquired by the Westchester Knicks.
In a time span of two years in the NBA, "The Elevator" played multiple seasons for the Westchester Knicks, earning him two 10-day contracts with the New York Knicks.
In the 2016-17 season, he signed for MoraBanc Andorra of the Liga ACB, and he led them to their first ACB playoffs in 22 years.
Although he had a short stint in the NBA, Thanasis Antetokounmpo has been consistently performing in the Liga ACB and the Euro League.
Kostas Antetokounmpo
The 19-year-old rising prodigy is a student at the University of Dayton in Ohio and plays at the small forward position for the Dayton Flyers.
Just like his big brother Giannis, Kostas has shown some freak athleticism and finishing abilities at the rim. This has resulted in him entering the list of the top 100 prospects in the country.
The young 19-year-old is expected to enter the 2021 NBA Draft. Most scouts project him to be a top 10 pick. Interestingly, according to the scout reports, he is a better player than both Giannis and Thanasis were at the same age.
Alexis Antetokounmpo
Having a 7'2" wingspan as a 16-year-old is next to impossible. But Alexis Antetokounmpo is a 16-year-old who has this bizarre characteristic.
The 6'6" shooting guard is expected to be a star at Dominican High School, where his older brother Kostas played as a small forward.
Alexis regularly trains with Giannis, who says that his 16-year-old brother is much better than he is and has much more potential than he does.
Francis Antetokounmpo
The oldest brother in the Antetokounmpo family was born and raised by his grandparents in Nigeria after his parents moved to Greece with his four brothers.
He remained in Nigeria to follow in his dad's footsteps to pursue a career in football. He currently plays for a local team in Nigeria. Interestingly, after Giannis got his first NBA paycheck, one of the first things he did was pay his older brother a trip for the very first time.
Giannis is already taking the league by storm. Imagine what will happen when his brothers enter the league.
Charles Antetokounmpo
The father of the Greek prodigies, Charles, was a professional Nigerian football player. He moved to Athens with his wife Veronica in 1991 in order to live better lives. Unfortunately, on 29th September 2017, he died due to a heart attack.
