After missing the entire 2024-25 season due to a torn Achilles tendon, forward Thanasis Antetokounmpo has inked a one-year, $2.9 million deal to stay with the Milwaukee Bucks, where he will continue to be united with his superstar brother, Giannis Antetokounmpo. The 33-year-old is currently showcasing his skills with the Greek National Team at EuroBasket, eager to make a strong comeback following his injury setback. Despite limited playing time in his last season with the Bucks, Antetokounmpo's energy and defensive prowess have made him a valued member of the roster since 2019.
Notably, the Antetokounmpo brothers' reunion is a significant development for the Bucks, as Giannis continues to dominate the league with impressive stats like averaging 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists per game in the previous season. The re-signing of Thanasis comes after fruitful discussions between the Antetokounmpos' representatives and the Bucks' management, hinting at a shared commitment to building on the team's success. With Thanasis back in the fold and the sibling duo ready to make their mark once again, Bucks fans have plenty to look forward to in the upcoming NBA season.
