During Giannis’ time in Milwaukee, the Bucks made several moves to keep their franchise superstar comfortable, including adding Thanasis and Alex Antetokounmpo to the organization.

However, according to ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, Miami is not expected to follow the same path.

“There won’t be any more Antetokounmpo brothers in Miami,” Shelburne said on ESPN LA. “That whole ‘we have Kostas and Thanasis on the team,’ I don’t think that’s going to continue, from what I understand.”

Thanasis Antetokounmpo, Giannis’ older brother, spent seven seasons with the Bucks and became a familiar presence next to the two-time NBA MVP.

Although his on-court role was limited, Giannis has often spoken about how important Thanasis’ presence was for him personally in Milwaukee.

With Thanasis on the roster, the Bucks won the 2021 NBA championship.

Across his Milwaukee stint, Thanasis appeared in 230 games, averaging 2.3 points and 1.5 rebounds.

This past season, the Bucks also added Giannis’ youngest brother, Alex Antetokounmpo.

Alex appeared in six games for Milwaukee, averaging 3.2 points and 1.0 rebounds, but spent most of the season with the Bucks’ G League affiliate.
