Yet another European luminary, Giannis Antetokounmpo of the Milwaukee Bucks, is aligning himself with EuroLeague advocacy. Speaking with Amerikanos 24, the Bucks' star expressed his admiration for EuroLeague contests.

"I watch both Panathinaikos and Olympiacos. I don't watch all the games but the highlights. I wish both of the teams the best. ... I watch [them play], but I'm not watching full games. I only see the highlights. I like it a lot. I don't watch the NBA, but I do watch the EuroLeague."
