Giannis Antetokounmpo keeps improving every season. When it is time to focus, he is all locked in. However, it is hard for him to suppress his hilarious side. Recently, he gave out advice to the Milwaukee Bucks’ camera team to make sure that people think he can shoot.

The Greek Freak is the most dominating force in the NBA. Not only can Giannis dunk over anyone, but his contributions on both ends of the floor make him unplayable. At just 26, he is a Finals MVP, DPOY and a 2 time regular season MVP. Currently, he can do no wrong.

However, the one limitation that Giannis has is shooting. While the Milwaukee star can body anyone he wishes, shooting has always been his weak point. Three pointers or free throws, he is still not the best at them. That is the reason everyone was shocked when he missed just 2 free throws in Game 6 of the NBA finals. Now, he is making sure it looks like he can even shoot.

Giannis Antetokounmpo gives tips to camera crew

The Milwaukee Bucks put out a video of Giannis talking with the teams’ shooters. While in conversation, he asked them to post different angles if he makes a three. He wanted to make people believe he made multiple shots if they show different angles.

Antetokounmpo said: “You guys, post my dunks, my threes. When I make a three, make it look good. Post it from different angles, you know what I’m saying? Like, post it from this angle, then this angle so it looks like I made four of them. So people can think I can shoot now.”

Giannis has a wonderful sense of humor and humility to go with his incredible achievements. However, coming to his shooting, there do appear to be some improvements in his form.

In the recent photoshoot for the Bucks, Giannis’ elbows seem much more tucked in than before. This may be an indicator that he has been working on his shot through the off season. While there isn’t a way he can turn himself into a shooter immediately, Giannis Antetokounmpo is doing his all to make sure he wipes away any weakness from his game.
