Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian hypes up $70,000,000-worth Giannis Antetokounmpo as Bucks star surpasses historic 20,000 NBA points

Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian sent an encouraging message to Giannis Antetokounmpo as the Milwaukee Bucks' superstar unlocked a new career milestone by surpassing the 20,000 NBA points mark. The Nigerian-Greek becomes the 52nd man in history to add his name to the illustrious list.

Antetokounmpo has been one of the most prolific players to ever play in the NBA and keeps adding to his already impressive basketball resume with new milestones. He joined the Bucks in 2013 and has not disappointed his side's trust in him, giving them the NBA trophy, in 2021, as well the NBA Cup, in 2024. It is worth noting that the 30-year-old was adjudged the MVP on both occasions.

The Bucks took on the Dallas Mavericks on March 5, who have been having a season to forget, where Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard scored a staggering 32 and 34 respectively, helping their side clinch a statement 137-107 win. They are currently enjoying a four-match winning streak.

During his performance, the 'Greek Freak', as lovingly called by his fans, surpassed the 20,000 points mark and became the sixth-youngest man to do so behind LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Wilt Chamberlain, and Michael Jordan.

Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian reshared the Milwaukee Bucks' Instagram post, celebrating $70 million-worth Giannis Antetokounpo's (according to Celebrity Net Worth) milestone, on his story and sent him an encouraging message,

"Onward to 30,000, Get em Giannis Anteokounmpo," Ohanian wrote.
