The Milwaukee Bucks<\/a> are signing Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way contract, Octagon managing director Alex Saratsis told ESPN’s Shams Charania on Monday.<\/p>\n

Alex, the youngest of the Antetokounmpo brothers, will join his two older siblings, Giannis<\/a> and Thanasis<\/a>, in Milwaukee.<\/p>\n

It marks the first time in NBA history that three brothers are signed on active roster contracts with the same team.<\/p>\n

Alex Antetokounmpo had been playing in Europe since 2024, following his time in the G League after going undrafted in 2021. He played for the Raptors 905 G League team during the 2021-22 season and also had a stint with Milwaukee’s G league squad from 2022-24.<\/p>\n

The Bucks are waiving guard Jamaree Bouyea<\/a> from a two-way contract to create roster space for Alex, sources told ESPN.<\/p>\n

This summer, Giannis helped lead the Greek national team to a bronze medal in the 2025 EuroBasket tournament, an achievement the two-time MVP would call his greatest accomplishment as an athlete. That team also included two of his brothers, Thanasis and Kostas.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jamal CollierOct 13, 2025, 12:33 PM ET CloseJamal Collier is an NBA reporter at ESPN.
