Giannis Antetokounmpo shares insight on his career goals: “I can play prime basketball until I'm 35"

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo has shown no signs of slowing down his dominance on the basketball court. The 28-year-old superstar believes that he's got plenty of years left in his "prime."

Antetokounmpo has blossomed into one of NBA's biggest stars. Although Giannis is a two-time MVP, his game is still on the rise.

He's averaging a career-best 31.2 points per game. If that holds, it would be the first time Giannis has averaged over 30.0 points per game in a single season. Currently, he is averaging 31.2 points, 11.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists while shooting 53.9%.

In an interview with Yahoo Sports, Antetokounmpo talked about how he's obsessed with the game of basketball and believes he's only started to improve his game:

"I'm 28-years-old, tenth year in the league, I feel like I can play prime basketball until I'm 35."

Giannis Antetokounmpo and Milwaukee Bucks look to secure top spot in Eastern Conference

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks have their eyes set on the top spot in the East

Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks have their eyes set on making it back to the NBA Finals.

Milwaukee has been one of the strongest teams in the East throughout the 2022-23 season. But they've spent most of the year looking up at the Boston Celtics when it comes to the standings. That was until recently, when the Bucks moved past the Celtics in rank.

The Bucks (48-18) now find themselves with a 2.5 game lead over the Boston Celtics (46-21) as the regular season is nearing its end. Milwaukee has a total of 16 games remaining on their schedule for the 2022-23 season.

Unless the team experiences a collapse, chances are they will have home court advantage throughout the Eastern Conference playoffs.
