Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks were ousted by the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Semifinals this season. Their quest for back-to-back crowns came to a screeching halt. The Bucks brought a championship to the city after a 50-year layoff and were among the favorites to do so again this season. This season, however, bore no fruit for them.

Antetokounmpo, after having another solid individual season, did everything in his power to bring glory to Milwaukee yet again. However, injuries to crucial players and a lack of points production broke down the Bucks’ express. The Celtics were successful in slowing down the Bucks; however, they couldn’t slow down the Greek Freak. Owing to several blunders, though, Milwaukee blew a 3-2 lead.

The Bucks player shared a picture of himself relishing some well-deserved family time in Greece.

Giannis will continue to torment his adversaries for some more years to come, but his fatherly love and dad jokes will live around.
