Giannis Antetokounmpo photographs with his eyes closed, explains Josh Oppenheimer
Why did Giannis Antetokounmpo shoot with his eyes closed before the Milwaukee Bucks away game against the Minnesota Timberwolves? Josh Oppenheimer provided the answer.
A very interesting story was told by Lisa Byington during the Timberwolves – Bucks game early Saturday morning (5/11). The sportscaster, who covers Milwaukee’s team games for Bally Sports Wisconsin, revealed Giannis Antetokounmpo was shooting shots with his eyes closed during the warm-up, then shared what assistant coach Josh Oppenheimer, the man who works with him on a daily basis, she told stories like no other.
According to Oppenheimer (who spoke exclusively to Sportish and Giannis’ shots a few days ago), Antetokounmpo has recently started performing with his eyes closed so he can focus on the routine he has to follow every time he’s on the Space is .line, in every detail. The Greek freak wants to shoot the same way and continues to try everything to become as efficient as possible. With the Greek national team in EuroBasket 2022 he reached almost 80% but after the first seven games of the 2022/23 season he had 66.3%.
