Giannis Antetokounmpo idolized Tsitsipas and Sakkaris
Giannis Antetokounmpo dribbled honey for both Maria Sakkari, who compared her to a ‘ball of fire’, and Stefanos Tsitsipas, who described him as a great guy and aspiring champion.
Giannis Antetokounmpo has made an impressive start to the NBA season and spoke on the sidelines of the game against the Atlanta Hawks about the other two Greek top athletes who excel in their sports.
The NBA superstar dribbled honey for both Maria Sakkari, who likened her to a “ball of fire,” and Stefanos Tsitsipas, who described him as a great guy and a champion-to-be.
“Tennis is not like basketball. In tennis, it’s just you and the opponent. Basketball is a team game and if I’m not having a good day, my teammates can lead us to victory. In tennis, that’s not the case.
Stefanos is a great guy and he’s just getting started. He’s one of the best in the world, but he’s getting better and better and has a bright future ahead of him.” he said of Tsitsipas.
Referring to Maria Sakkari, he emphasized: “She is unbelievable. She’s like a ball of fire and I love that. She plays with a lot of intensity. She is a good friend of mine and I wish her the best.”
