Giannis Antetokounmpo
Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best players in the world right now, but how much is the Milwaukee Bucks star making per season?
Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best players in the world in his own right. The Greek-Nigerian NBA superstar is a franchise player for the Milwaukee Bucks, and is the key man for the Greek national team as well–the 28-year-old’s talent and physical ability where he combines size, speed and agility make him an incredibly scary opponent to go up against at the moment.
An NBA Championship winner with the Bucks and a two-time winner of the MVP award already, Antetokounmpo is an incredible package of size, speed, and agility. Antetokounmpo stands at 6 feet and 11 inches and is incredibly agile for a man of his size, a trait that has earned him the nickname “Greek Freak”–and one of the most followed basketball players in the world.
Giannis’ significance for his team and the NBA have made him one of the most sought-after players in the world, and it is no wonder that the Bucks pay him a lot of money to keep him around. It turns out that the Bucks will pay him $42,492,492 for 2022/23, while the sum will keep on increasing with every year – amounting to a four-year package of $188,895,490.
Giannis’ package makes him the fourth highest-paid player in the NBA, only behind LeBron James, Stephen Curry, and Kevin Durant on the lucrative list. However, the Bucks will feel like Giannis is repaying every penny with his incredible performances since the start of the season.
The Greek Freak has been in incredible form since the beginning of the season.
Giannis is living up to his nickname by producing consistently freakish performances this season. While the Bucks are currently on a 9-1 start to the season, they owe a lot of their form to Giannis who has emerged as one of the early favorites to win the Most Valuable Player award.
Giannis has averaged 31.8 points, 12.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game and has recorded two double-doubles and a triple-double as well this season. If Giannis keeps up with his form until the business end of the season, the NBA Championship will be on its way back to Milwaukee.
