The 2023-2024 NBA season is scheduled to begin on the 24th of October. With a lot of hype around the ?new? teams that are formed after trades between NBA teams, the preseason matchups have been everything that an NBA fan could ask for. As players are slowly getting ready for the upcoming season, the Milwaukee Bucks squad is looking at the top of its game after their recent preseason triumph over the Los Angeles Lakers.

In a recent social media post, however, despite their recent success, NBA veteran Gilbert Arenas took a shot at the Bucks’ power forward.

In the first quarter of the game, Antetokounmpo posts up against his man. He fakes a fadeaway from his right shoulder and tries to scoop in a layup. The defender, however, sticks close to the Greek, not falling for the fake. Then, Antetokounmpo uses his footwork to move to the right and create some space for a floater from the center.

Hakeem Olajuwon was another center who used his incredible footwork to create space for himself at the post. However, Gilbert Arenas posted a clip of Antetokounmpo making this move, captioning the post, ?Travel?.

This is not the first time that the former NBA veteran has called out Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Gilbert Arenas? previous criticism of Giannis Antetokounmpo

Giannis Antetokounmpo is one of the most promising and sought-after NBA athletes in today?s league. Apart from his impressive strength and athleticism, he already boasts a number of achievements in his 10-year career, like winning 2 NBA Championships and even winning the coveted ‘MVP? title in 2019.

A year ago, Gilbert Arenas had this to say about Giannis, ?He doesn?t understand basketball yet, he plays the sport, he won a championship, cool. He doesn?t really understand how to be great, how to be better, how to train his body.?

Despite facing such harsh criticism from a former NBA player, Giannis Antetokounmpo was unfazed. He responded to Gilbert Arenas, ?Does it bother me? I?m not going to lie, it makes me want to work harder.??Continuing, he said,??Do I go back home and think about it and I can?t sleep? Not necessarily.?

Giannis concludes by saying, ?But at the end of the day, hey, I don?t know, when I am 45 years old, 50 years old, I might be, you know, a little bit bitter, too. I might be seeing, you know, this 20-year-old making signing a three-year 900 million. ? Maybe, I don?t know, but I don?t think so.?

Clearly, the current NBA superstar knows how to give a befitting reply to his haters. What are your thoughts on Gilbert Arenas? most recent criticism of Giannis Antetokounmpo?
