Giannis Antetokounmpo was the first guest on season 5 of Serge Ibaka’s YouTube show, How hungry are you?  The episode hovered around getting to know Antetokounmpo better. In the Spicy Questions round of the episode, Antetokounmpo was asked about his celebrity crush. His answer is something that his girlfriend would completely approve of.

The Spicy Questions round dealt with personal questions. Antetokounmpo had the choice of answering them or not. However, there was a catch. Antetokounmpo was required to drink cricket tea if he refused to answer a question. On the other hand, if he did answer, then Ibaka would drink the same tea. Before the round commenced, Antetokounmpo expressed a strong dislike towards the tea. He said, “Bro this smells bro.” However, he went to answer most of the questions.

The Milwaukee Bucks’ season so far

At the start of the season, the Bucks looked unstoppable. With nine straight wins, the Bucks had everything going right for them. However, they have hit a slightly rocky road with three losses and a few injuries. Their star player, Giannis Antetokounmpo, wasn’t part of the lineup in the previous two games.

Reports state that this decision was taken because of a sore knee. However, he was part of the lineup in last night’s game against the Atlanta Hawks.

The Hawks beat them (Bucks) by 14 points. Trae Young and De’Andre Hunter were the stars of the game for the Hawks. Bucks’ Antetokounmpo spent 31 minutes on the court and scored 27 points. Despite scoring more than 25 points, Antetokounmpo didn’t have a good game.

He failed to make a single three-pointer and scored only 11 of the 18 shots from the free-throw line. During the press conference, he acknowledged his game and stated that he was slowly getting back into the routine. He said, “You can’t expect to be at your best when you haven’t played for a week.”

The Bucks look to get back to winning ways when they play the Cleveland Cavaliers next.
