One Record Giannis Antetokounmpo Can Accomplish That Neither Michael Jordan or LeBron James Could
Follow Us
Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the best players in the NBA today, despite his recent struggles. The ‘Greek Freak’ has consistently shown, for the past few seasons, that he is one of the most dominant players to ever step foot in the NBA. But he could be on track to accomplishing something that even Michael Jordan and LeBron James could never do.
Giannis Antetokounmpo has the chance to make history
This season, if Giannis Antetokounmpo wins the MVP, he will become a consecutive three-time MVP. Only three players in the history of the NBA have won the MVP title three times consecutively – Bill Rusell, Wilt Chamberlain, and Larry Bird. Since Bird’s last MVP win, no player has achieved this historic feat.

The Grecian has a long road ahead of him. Currently, he is not one of the front-runners for MVP.
