Greek coach talks about Antetokounmpo brother: I won t open the back door to anyone, he has brought great energy

August 29th, the men's basketball European Championship group stage, Greece beat Italy 75-66 to usher in a good start. Greek coach Vassilis Spanoulis talked about Antetokounmpo's performance in this game after the game.

The Greek head coach said: "He suffered a serious injury 15 months ago, but he is an incredible athlete. He is the kind of player who will give everything for the team. Before I formally called him, we talked, and I told him, 'The choice is in your hands, you can only come for one day, you can stay for five days, or you can stay on the final list, but I won't open the back door for anyone.'"

"There turned out that he came, and he was very hard, he brought us great energy and passion. He is a good teammate, he is the kind of person who plays to win and doesn't care about the data at all."

Last May, Sanassis Antetokounmpo suffered a torn Achilles tendon. This European Championship was his first official game appearance after a serious injury. He scored 6 points in this game, including a key three-pointer, helping the Greek team defeat Italy.
