Antetokounmpo: Focus on defense, this is my role. Performance against Italy is helpful for signing

September 1 According to previous reports, Antetokounmpo's brother, Sanassis Antetokounmpo, returned to the Bucks with a one-year contract of 2.9 million.

Affected by injury, Sanassis Antetokounmpo played for the first time in the official match after more than a year, that is, the European Championships against Italy.

When asked whether this game played a role in signing, he said: "Of course there is. In the first game against Italy, the Bucks were on the scene. They saw me focus on defense and were very excited. I was just doing my job well, and this is my role. What is important is that anyone (after encountering such an injury) must re-prove themselves whether they return to the original team or participate in such a game. This is the rule of basketball: your past achievements are important, and that is your resume, but you have to re-prove your value every day. Professional sports are like this."

In the game against Italy, Sanassis Antetokounmpo came on the bench for 2 of 5 shots in 13 minutes, made 1 of 1 three-pointer, 1 of 2 free throws, and scored 6 points, 3 rebounds, 1 block, with a plus-minus value +10 highest.
